Question:
What soft start would work with the FR23TD?
asked by: Gary R
Expert Reply:
Hi Gary; for a soft start you can use the SoftStartRV # SSR54FR or for a plug in version the Active Controls ActiveStart # AS44FR (30 amp) or # SSR64FR (50 Amp). All of these are compatible with the Furrion Chill HE RV Air Conditioner System # FR23TD.
Since you're replacing an AC have you considered the Chill Cube? The new AC from Furrion doesn't really need a soft start with the variable speed compressor. It is incredibly efficient, quiet, and offers more cooling power. If you have a ductless setup you need # FR59TD and for a ducted setup # FR99TD.
