We had a chance to have a demo of a Coleman Mach10 and that is what we went with when we ordered our new trailer. Much quieter than the Dometic plus it has a bluetooth thermostat so no fussing with wiring one of those up. It is not as streamlined as the Dometic but that wasn't a big deal for us.]]> Sat, 17 Sep 2022 10:30:34 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=15464&PID=149586#149586 Air conditioner replacement : thank you http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=15464&PID=149583#149583 Author: EchoGale

I don't have and personal information to base a recommendation on. I see there are both Coleman and Recpro a/cs in that size range. The Recpro is advertised as being "quiet" for what that's worth. ]]> Fri, 16 Sep 2022 07:14:35 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=15464&PID=149582#149582 Air conditioner replacement : Thank you.

I think you could go with a smaller capacity RV roof a/c. 13.5k btu/hour is really overkill for that little space.

It's nice to have the extra capacity if you want to cool down the interior in a hurry but results in short cycling once it's cooled down, and it sounds like a jet exhaust. So it depends on how hot it is where you camp and how fast you want things to cool once you set up camp.

There are a couple options in the 9000 btu/hour range. Might or might not be a bit quieter, but ought to be a little less expensive and more efficient. Any of them should fit the standard roof opening.]]> Thu, 15 Sep 2022 08:43:27 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=15464&PID=149575#149575 Air conditioner replacement : Hi folks, It looks like I am going... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=15464&PID=149569#149569 Author: EchoGale

Hi folks, It looks like I am going to have to replace my existing dometic a/c unit on my 2016 172 (641816CXX1). Has anyone found a less expensive but reliable replacement model?  How about something quieter? Would appreciate any input.
