Can Furrion The Air Distribution Box FR38BC Be Used With A Chill HE AC?  

Updated 09/18/2026 | Published 09/16/2026

Question:

Will this work with my Furrion FACR13HESA2-PS-AM R32 that has the heat strip kit installed? Currently the distribution box only dumps down and has manual control knobs. I am looking for a distribution box that will at minimum direct air fore and aft.

Hi Wayne!

The Air Distribution Box - Furrion Chill Cube Variable Speed Low Profile AC - 13.5K/15K - R32 # FR38BC is only compatible with Furrion Chill Cube 13.5K and 15K low-profile variable speed air conditioners. It is not compatible with the standard profile Chill Cube or the Chill HE systems, unfortunately.

The only options we have to upgrade your current FACR13HESA2-PS-AM Chill HE are the following parts:

Replacement Air Distribution Box for Furrion Chill RV Air Conditioners - Electric Control - R32 # FR68TD
Replacement Single Zone Controller for Furrion Chill HE RV Air Conditioner Setup - R32 # FR98TD
Replacement Wall Thermostat for Furrion Chill HE RV Air Conditioner - Single Zone - Black - R32 # FR88TD

These will give you a wall mounted thermostat instead of the roof mounted adjustments, but it won't really give you more options for changing the air flow. To my knowledge, there isn't a way to do that currently.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but let me know if there is anything else I can help with. What camper/RV were you hoping to use this in? I may have another option, but it would likely involve replacing the entire AC.

@WayneT Indeed. We were hoping it would be cross compatible as well as we do hear this fairly often. Maybe they will do something in the future though!
