Hi everybody. Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a look together at this Advent Air Black Low Profile 15,000 BTU RV air conditioner for your Coleman setup. This low profile air conditioner unit is going to let you replace your Coleman mock rooftop air conditioner on your RV or camper. And that low profile design is going to minimize wind resistance to help improve your fuel efficiency and give you additional overhead clearance that you're looking for. This 15,000 BTU per hour air conditioner is gonna quickly and efficiently cool the inside of your RV or camper.
And this is compatible with ducted or ductless systems. This is a bolt-on installation. However, I do wanna point out that installation hardware is not included with this. That is something that you're gonna have to source locally to best match your current setup and application. Now I do wanna point out that this air conditioner is going to be for your motor homes, your travel trailers, and your fifth wheels, but this is not improved for use in school buses, food trucks, enclosed utility trailers or for off-roading vehicles.
Now this is going to fit roofs from two and a half inches to five inches thick with an opening size of 14 and a quarter inches long and 14 and a quarter inches wide. And while we're talking about measurements, let me give you the overall dimensions of this system. So measuring from front to back, the overall length is gonna be about 31 inches long. Looking at the overall width here at the widest point, we're sitting at about 24 and 15 16th inches wide. And then the overall height from top to bottom here at the tallest point, we're sitting at about 10 and one eighth inches tall.
Now the unit itself weighs a little under 70 pounds and let me go ahead and remove the cover. I went ahead and removed the screws holding this cover before our time together, just so I can a little bit more easily and quickly remove it, just to show you the inside. So at that angle, let me just give you a brief overview there. Turn this around here just a little bit, but I think a better view is gonna be overhead. So let me give you just an overhead view here.
This unit does feature a fan blade with a three speed motor and that's going to give you ample airflow at 500 cubic feet per minute. And this does feature a condensation dispersion system, which is going to increase cooling efficiency by managing moisture to prevent water runoff. So this cover, I'm gonna go ahead and replace it here. This cover is constructed of a really good piece of plastic. I have dealt with other RV air conditioning units in the past and sometimes those covers can be kind of thin, kind of flimsy, but that's not the case with this cover. This covers, you can see has a nice tight fit here around the unit, but it also feels relatively thick. So I don't think you're gonna have to worry about this easily cracking or breaking or anything like that. It's a really good piece of plastic. And then once you have this installed, it's going to fit really well around it. It's gonna be very easy to remove. You just remove the screws that secure it, you just need a Phillips screwdriver so you can easily remove this, do some maintenance, do some cleaning, and then easily put it back into place and then just tighten down those screws. So let me give you just a little bit of a closer view here. I wanted to point out that this base here is a rigid metal frame, rigid metal construction. And this has thick foam support pads at the bottom that's gonna give you support between your RV roof and air conditioner. A gasket seals the opening to prevent water seepage and air leaks. And these foam pads are gonna help reduce noise. Now also included with this is this adapter wiring kit. Let me bring this up a little bit closer so you can see. This is going to enable your air conditioner to work with your existing Coleman setup. So this wiring adapter is included with some hardware and also a template to help you in that installation process. And then this also features this start capacitor that is going to jumpstart this air conditioner when maybe the campsite that you're at or a generator that you're using doesn't give you just enough power to get your air conditioner started. So this is going to store energy that will later be used for the next startup. So this will be installed in in the air conditioner itself. You've got some hardware that's also included with this and instructions. This is UL and CUL certified. And again, obviously, this does feature this really nice black cover. But if black doesn't go with your current setup, the good news is we do also provide this in white. So if you're interested in the white cover, you can just take the item number that you see there on your screen and put it in the search field of our website and that will take you to the system with the white cover. Everything that we talked about will be the same, all the components and all the features. The only difference will be the cover will be white rather than black. 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 Coleman Mach air conditioner on your RV or camper. Included adapter wiring kit works with your existing Coleman setup. Start capacitor jumpstarts the AC when camp power or generator power isn't enough.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.
Every thing shipped fast and no damage
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.
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!
