Hi, everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a look together at this Advent Air White Low-Profile 15,000 BTU RV Air Conditioner for your carrier setup. Now, this low-profile air conditioner unit is going to let you replace your carrier rooftop air conditioner with a low-profile air conditioner on the roof of your RV or camper. And this included wiring adapter is going to enable this air conditioner to work with your existing carrier setup. It's gonna be virtually a plug-and-play operation. And as you know, the low-profile design of this air conditioner is going to minimize wind resistance to help improve your fuel efficiency and also provide additional overhead clearance for you.
This 15,000 BTU per hour air conditioner is going to be able to quickly and efficiently cool down the inside of your RV or camper. This is going to be compatible with ducted or ductless systems. And this is going to be a bolt-on installation with the included mounting hardware that you see here. Now, this is going to be great for your motor homes, your travel trailers, and your fifth wheels. However, I do wanna point out that this is not approved for use on school buses, food trucks, enclosed utility trailers, or off-roading vehicles.
Just so you're aware of that. This is going to fit roofs from 2 1/2 inches to five inches thick with an opening size of 14 1/4 inches long by 14 1/4 inches wide. And just to go over some measurements with you of the unit itself, just so you have a good idea of the size. Looking at the overall length from back to front, we're sitting at about 31 inches long. The overall height from top to bottom, we're sitting at about 10 1/8 inches tall.
And then the overall width, we're sitting right at about 24 15/16 inches wide. This air conditioner unit weighs a little under 70 pounds, and I would like to go ahead and take the cover off here real quick just to give you a view of the inside. So I went ahead and loosened and removed the screws before our time together just so it'll be a little bit easier and quicker to remove the cover. So you have a view, a little bit of the inside there from that angle. But I wanna give you a better view overhead.
So this air conditioner does feature a fan blade with a three-speed motor that's going to give you ample air flow at 500 cubic feet per minute. And this also features a condensation dispersion system, which is going to increase the cooling efficiency by managing moisture to prevent water runoff. Hopefully, you got a good look on the inside there. I'm gonna go ahead and replace our cover. And while I do that, I just wanted to point out that this cover (cover thudding) is a really good piece of plastic. It's a pretty thick piece of plastic. Some other RV air conditioners that I have dealt with in the past, other brands, some of them kind of have a thinner cover that doesn't feel real durable and doesn't feel like it would take a good impact if something would, for chance, drop on it, drop on it on top of it. But that's not the case with this. This Advent Air construct, really strong, durable cover. So this is a pretty good thick piece of plastic that I think is gonna do a great job of protecting those internal components from water and debris. And as you saw, this is gonna be very easy to remove, very easy to replace. So if you need to do a little bit of maintenance or maybe do a little bit of cleaning inside, all you gotta do is remove the screws that secure the cover around the perimeter with the Phillips head screwdriver. Lift this off, and then when you're done, pop the cover back on in place. It has a nice snug fit, and replace those screws, and you will be good to go. I did want to give you just a little bit of a closer view here and point out that this does have a rigid metal frame. And then hopefully, you'll be able to see just a little bit here. Underneath, we do have thick foam support pads that's going to give you quite a bit of support between the roof of your RV and air conditioner. And then a gasket is going to seal the opening to prevent water seepage and air leaks. And those foam pads at the bottom, at the base of our unit here, is going to do a great job of reducing noise after you have this installed. So I wanted to give you a closeup of the wiring kit that's going to plug right into your carrier setup. So that's a good look at that kit there. And then I also wanted to talk about our capacitor here. This stark capacitor, as you probably know, is going to jumpstart this air conditioner when the campsite that you're at or maybe the generator that you're using doesn't give you just enough power to start your air conditioner. And then this capacitor is going to store energy that will later be used for your next startup. And then this is gonna be a very simple install, with the included hardware right into the air conditioner unit. And then it's just going to plug into place there inside of your unit. This is cUL and UL-certified. And we do also offer this air conditioner with a black cover. And so if the white cover isn't gonna go with your current setup, we do have a black cover option available. And also if a 15,000 BTU rate, that 15,000 BTU rating is a little bit higher than what you're looking for, we do also offer these air conditioner units at 13,500 BTU. So we do have those options available too if this isn't necessarily what you're looking for, but those alternative options are available with this kit. Well, I think that's gonna wrap up our look today. I do hope that our time together was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.

Low-profile AC unit replaces the Carrier air conditioner on your RV or camper. Included adapter wiring kit enables the AC to work with your existing setup. The start capacitor jumpstarts the AC when camp power or generator power isn't enough.I purchased this 15,000 BTU unit with the direction from customer service. I was told that it was a replacement for my original Dometic AC on my 5th wheel and that it would mount and have identical wiring.
They were very helpful and correct. It was extremely easy to replace. The mounting bolts and wiring hook up were identical to my old unit. The hardest part was getting it on the roof of my camper which actually wasn’t that difficult. I put an old piece of carpet (upside down) on the roof to protect it. I used my tractor with a front loader to lift it as high as I could then just set it up on the roof.
Once I removed the diverter/trim from the inside ceiling there are 4 bolts holding the unit in place, one wiring plug and the freeze sensor attached to the evaporator. Once that was all done it just lifted off the roof. After cleaning the roof where the old unit set, I simply set the new unit on the same seal footprint. I went inside hook up the wire plug, located the freeze sensor and tightened the 4 bolts. Don’t tighten the bolts too tight, just enough to hold it tight and adequately compress the foam seal.
The overall size of the new unit is shorter and smaller than the Dometic.
So far so good, I ordered two of these to replace my existing units.
One unit arrived damaged, but is working OK.
They seem a little noiser than the Coleman Machs.
Working good so far.
I don't know about longevity however I replaced 2 Dometic Brisk 2 systems on a camper I bought that needed a little more than tlc. It is a 2 zone Dometic system and these plugged right up. Only had them in a for a few days but they work great! Very pleased. I am hoping they last. Shipping was FAST and Etrailer kept me up to date on status. They were also very helpful with questions I had to make sure they would work with my system. I think these are actually quieter than the Dometics I replaced. Not hard to install, in fact the hardest part was getting them on the roof.
Good air conditioner, but fan won't shut off after set temperature is met
So EASY it aughta’ be CHEESY!!! Unboxed AC Unit, noticed two dents in the unit but none of the parts looked damaged or inconsistent; So I decided not to call regarding minor damage, instead I decided to install it by using two ramps I made out of scrap wood. TIP: the wooden ramps made it so simple to install the unit with minimal effort and two people. This made it a breeze to put in and I really recommend using this tip when installing your unit… The New Advent AC Unit made is so simple to plug into the dometic. This unit is made for easy installation and almost a universal fit. Great Experience at this establishment and happy with their product and selection of RV and Trailer parts. I will definitely recommend to all my fellow RV’ers! Happy Shopping! Always remember… Keep your library card updated!??????
The A/C seem to be a good value and the customer service from Britney was great. It was not clear to me that this unit didn't include all of the inside the camper components and thermostat as shown in the installation video.
Much more compact and lighter than original unit and came when anticipated. This unit Beatrice made sure the crossover from Coleman to Advent was compatible and right adapter was used. Love dealing with e trailer as I can speak to real people that I can understand and know what they are talking about.
Etrailer folks were extremely helpful! Sheila thank you! The casing had some minor dents in the sides therefore I gave 4 stars. I was able to pull them back out. Advent needs better packaging in their boxes to protect the unit!
Disappointed, I called before ordering the female I talked to told me that my current metal flange and plastic distribution would work with the new Advent AC. Not really, I tried to use the existing flange it turned into a huge pain. I watched the video for the install and it seemed to me that the divider or plenum was included with the AC- Nope, this part also I think is included with the lower unit part # ACRG15 but.... the customer service rep wasn't sure a little disappointed. So now I have ordered part # ACRG15 paid more shipping! In final learn from my mistake customer service reps are not sure about want you need for a complete job, just order everything send back what you don't use.
direct replacement as advertised,easy to do, hard part is getting it on the roof, good instructions, but I youtubed it, also to make sure I was right....definaly do it again,e trailer was great staying in touch..
The replacement air conditioner works perfectly. The base plate on my original Coleman was smaller, so we have to make some adjustments otherwise everything works great.
The Advent A/C was delivered in good physical condition. I have not installed it yet. UPS had it sitting in their truck on its end. I do not think that is good for the compressor. Hopefully it starts and runs with no issues when I install it next week. Fast friendly customer service and delivery. Thank you Etrailer.
I am very happy with my purchase,it showed up in only a few day and was exactly as advertised, additionally the ease of instalation was a pleasant surprise ans I am enjoying it very much.
Thank you etrailer keep up the good work!
Great service! Great prices! I had a question and technician answered quickly and explained everything.
Boxes arrived intact. Was kept informed about when it would ship, that it had shipped and had arrived and where they had dropped it off.
Was truly great experience! Will recommend to my other RVing friends!
Installation, went smooth without any problems
The unit is cooling very well
Everything was exactly what what I needed to get chilling again
Installed unit today ad is blowing ice cold. Direct replacement for my old unit. Shipped extremely fast
Bought this to replace an older (2007) Coleman 8000 on our pop-up. Had a bit of a time installing this. Please, READ THE INSTRUCTIONS and LOOK AT THE PICTURES. I had the upper duct that mounts to the roof unit installed 180 degrees off.
The converter kit that you buy with this if you're replacing a Coleman, didn't fit my Coleman panel. It's made for newer units. After talking to etrailer and the manufacturer I found I had to purchase a new control panel for inside. Another $85.
Overall it wasn't a bad job once I figured out the upper duct and the control panel issues. Unit cools well. About the same noise level as the old Coleman. It is not as thick top to bottom as the Coleman was. Think it's a little lighter after picking up both! Real test of how it works will be the trip we're taking next month.
excellent.plug and play install. so eas y!
The delivery was extremely timely and everything that was promised was kept! I know I will be calling again, as RV's always want some attention.
Thank you!!
My customer needed a unit asap . Ashley found a similar unit that was in stock for me. It shipped quickly and I installed it this morning. Called customer and she was a very happy camper!
