Question:

I’m putting together a parts list for a newer R32 AC swap, and I’m confused by “AC unit only.” If I buy the GE44FR, what actually needs to go in the cart with it?

Expert Reply:

Hey Stefan! The GE Appliances HE # GE44FR is the rooftop AC unit, so it’s the starting point, not the whole system by itself. To finish the setup, you’ll add the GE interior install kit that matches how your RV distributes air.

If your RV has ceiling vents throughout the coach, add the ducted install kit # GE56FR. If your RV does not have ceiling ductwork and the air comes straight out below the AC, add the ductless install kit # GE46FR.

That pairing is important because # GE44FR is part of the newer R32 lineup, and those units are meant to be installed with compatible GE interior controls and air distribution parts, and are NOT compatible with the older style. Are you replacing a ducted system or a ductless one, Stefan?
