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 System. Now, this low-profile air conditioner unit is gonna let you replace, upgrade, or add a new air conditioner to your RV or camper. And this system includes this air distribution box with a built-in thermostat and a start capacitor. And this low-profile design of this air conditioner unit is going to minimize wind resistance while improving your fuel efficiency and giving you additional overhead space for your RV or camper. Now, this 15,000 Btu per hour air conditioner is going to quickly and efficiently cool down the inside of your RV or camper.
And this is going to be compatible with your ductless systems, and this is going to be a bolt-on installation with the included hardware that you see there. So this is gonna be great for your motorhomes, your travel trailers, your 5th wheels. However, I wanna make you aware of the fact, this has not been approved for use on school buses, food trucks, or enclosed utility trailers or off-roading vehicles. 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 let me go over some measurements of the unit itself.
Measuring the length from the front to the back, 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 at about 24 15/16 inches wide. This does weigh a little under 70 pounds. And as you can see, this air conditioner does have a white cover, but we do also carry this air conditioner with this exact same kit or system in a black cover, so that option is available for you as well.
I'm gonna go ahead and remove this cover. I went ahead and loosened and remove the screws from the cover to make that a little bit quicker and easier to remove. So you have a pretty decent view of the inside of this unit from that angle, but let me give you a better view overhead. 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 air conditioner also features a condensation dispersion system, increasing the cooling efficiency by managing moisture to prevent water runoff.
So hopefully, that gives you a good idea of what's going on underneath the cover with this air conditioner unit. Speaking of the cover, as I replace it, I do wanna point out that this is a hard plastic cover. So this is constructed of, in my opinion, a pretty nice thick piece of plastic. Other RV air conditioners that I have seen in the past, sometimes their covers can be kind of thin, kind of flimsy. That's not the case with this Advent Air cover. It's pretty thick, I think it's gonna hold up really well, it's gonna do a great job of protecting those internal components from water and debris. And as you can see, this is very easy to remove and replace. So if you're needing to do a little bit of maintenance on it or if you want to do a little bit of cleaning before camping and RV season begins, take a Phillips head screwdriver, remove the screws that are securing this lid in place, and then remove the cover. When you're done, this cover is gonna be able to be easily replace. And replace those screws and tighten them down, and you will be good to go. This also does feature a rigid metal frame with thick foam pads underneath that you probably can't see from that angle. And those foam pads are gonna give you great support between the roof of your RV and air conditioner. And then the gasket is actually going to seal the opening to prevent water seepage and air leaks, and those foam pads are going to help reduce noise after you have this installed. Let's take a closer look at this side of the table to go over the components that's included in this particular system. Of course, we have our air distribution box, and it has adjustable registers at the front and the back to help you direct the air where you want it. Also, a removable air filter, you're just gonna pull those tabs back, that cover's gonna come off, and you'll be able to remove the filter to clean it when it's dirty. So of course, that filter's gonna prevent dust and dirt buildup on your fan blades. And then our built-in thermostat control to control your fan speed and selection, and also, the temperature that you're wanting inside of your RV or camper. This air distribution box has internal aluminum components that are rustproof. I have this propped up on blocks, but let me go ahead and just give you an overview here. So turning this this way, you see that one register there. And then turning this the way it's actually gonna be installed, you see the other register. And this is going to be about 3 1/2 inches thick. So once you have this installed up in your ceiling, it's gonna stick out about, stick down rather, about 3 1/2 inches. And then let me see if I can quickly turn this around, so you can just see the other side. And then we're gonna go ahead and prop this back up and give you some additional measurements on this box. Making sure this doesn't slide off my table here. So looking at the overall length, we're sitting about 21 1/2 inches long. And the overall width, we're gonna be sitting at about 21 1/2 inches wide. And then this does include this start capacitor that is going to jumpstart your air conditioner when the campsite that you're at or the generator that you might be using isn't giving you that enough power to get your air conditioner going. This is going to install inside of the air conditioner unit. This does come with mounting screws to help you easily install this in your unit. And then, of course, you'll just connect those contact points, so it's gonna be a very easy install. Instructions are also included to guide you through that easy installation. This kit does not include an electric heating strip, but we do have that available separately. So if you want to add a strip to this system, an electric heating strip to take the the chill out of the air on colder mornings, you can pick that up here at etrailer.com, add that to your order, and that's gonna be another easy install inside of your air conditioner. This is UL and cUL certified. And 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.

Start capacitor jumpstarts the AC when camp power or generator power isn't enough.have not had a chance yet to engage with the unit more like few weeks ill let U know thx john
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.
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!
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.
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.
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!!
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!
