Hey Chad. The thermostat is only required if you have a furnace. The remote included with the Ducted Air Distribution Box for Furrion Chill Cube RV Air Conditioners item # LC64DX will not control a furnace nor will the buttons on the air box.

Please note that the Ducted Air Distribution Box for Furrion Chill Cube RV Air Conditioners item # LC64DX is not backwards compatible and only works with Furrion Chill Cubes. If you're wanting to upgrade a ducted AC system you'll need item # FR39TD.

What kind of trailer do you have and what changes to your AC system are you wanting to make?

Jerred I just recently swapped out an old noisy inefficient unit for the chill cube and it is performing great. I realized the problem with the furnace needing the thermostat so I need to correct that before cold weather.

@ChadH I didn't see an order number. Which Chill Cube did you buy and is it for a ducted setup? To add a thermostat you'll need to have purchased a Chill Cube with a ducted airbox like item # FR39TD. The correct one is the Thermostat for Furrion Chill Cube Ducted RV Air Conditioners item # LC74DX
