Hi Lauris, cool name!
With your 2005 Casita 17 Spirit Deluxe being on the small size, I think the 18,000 BTU Furrion Chill Cube will be a bit overkill, so I recommend going with a 15k Chill HE unit. You could also go with a 13.5k set up, but the 15k units are more efficient and are only a little more expensive, so I think it's worth it.
Furrion Chill HE RV Air Conditioner System - Manual - 15,000 Btu - White - R32 # FR23TD
Furrion Chill HE RV Air Conditioner System - Single Zone - Wall Thermostat - 15,000 Btu - White - R32 # FR83TD
All of these are full replacements that include everything you need and work with Ducted or Ductless set ups. With all manufacturers being required to change over to the new R32 coolant to meet EPA regulations, you will need all parts to get a new AC. This is due to none of them being backwards compatible with parts pre-2025.
If you were thinking about going with an 18k Chill Cube, you would want the Furrion Chill Cube RV Air Conditioner w Air Distribution Box - Ductless - 18,000 Btu - Black # FR27TD, just keep in mind that it will only work with Ductless set ups. Pretty sure your camper is, but wanted to mention it.
Any more trips planned for the summer?
