Expert Answers about Toyota RV Air Conditioners


  • Differences Between the ACM150 and ACDOM150
  • The only difference between the Advent Air RV Air Conditioners # ACM150 and # ACDOM150 is that the latter comes with the Start Capacitor for Advent Air RV Air Conditioners # ACMSCKIT. If you wanted to you could buy the Advent Air RV Air Conditioners # ACM150 and then separately add the Start Capacitor for Advent Air RV Air Conditioners # ACMSCKIT. I have added links to video reviews for you to check out as well.

  • Comparing SoftStartRV Soft Start for RV AC Units # SSR54FR Vs Advent Start Capacitor # ACMSCKIT
  • The SoftStartRV Soft Start for RV AC Units # SSR54FR is not just a larger capacitor like the Start Capacitor for Advent Air RV Air Conditioners # ACMSCKIT. The SoftStartRV kit ties into both the run and start capacitors to allow the A/C to start up and run your 15,000 Btu AC on a 20-amp household hookup. It has an integrated bypass connector that prevents the unit from overheating and reduces the risk of the capacitor exploding and risk of fire. It is also IP65-rated against dust and water...

  • What is the Difference Between the Furrion Chill HE and the Furrion Chill A/C?
  • The only real differences between the Furrion Chill Premium RV Air Conditioner System # FR26PR and the Furrion Chill HE RV Air Conditioner System # FR58PR is the BTU rating, other than that they are the exact same. For your 2021 Heartland Fuel 265 I recommend going with Furrion Chill HE RV Air Conditioner System # FR55PV because it has a higher BTU rating, and is a bit quieter when running which over time I believe it would be worth it.

  • Inverter Generator that is Comparable to Discontinued etrailer 3,200 Watt Inverter Generator
  • I do have an option for you, but the etrailer 3,200 watt inverter generators are no longer available. The A-iPower 3,800-Watt Portable Inverter Generators # 289-SUA2000i-2 are a great comparable option as well though. The A-iPower 3,800-Watt Portable Inverter Generators # 289-SUA2000i-2 will be 3,800 watts and 3,000 running watts, opposed to the 3,200 watts and 2,900 running watts that the etrailer generators were. The The A-iPower 3,800-Watt Portable Inverter Generators # 289-SUA2000i-2...

  • How Does The RV Awning UV Protectant and Conditioner # BE85FR Compare To Armor All?
  • As the RV Awning UV Protectant and Conditioner # BE85FR is specifically designed for superior protection on RV products I feel it works better on RV surfaces than Armor All products. The Vinyl used on awnings, gel coat fiberglass and rubber roof material are much different than the materials used on vehicles which is what the Armor All products were designed for.

  • Recommended Storage Cover for Aliner Ranger 12 with Side Air Conditioner & Rear-Mounted Spare Tire
  • Aliner's website specs for the Ranger 12 indicate a 15-foot overall length including the trailer tongue. The pop-up portion's actual dimensions are not provided. In most instances we will suggest using the larger of two cover options. Between the # CA80039 and the larger # CA80040 I suggest using the larger cover since it will be easier to install. Any extra slack can always be secured with tie-downs. Usually customers prefer to use a larger cover that will be a bit easier to put on compared...

  • Towed Vehicle Braking System Options for Flat-Towed 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
  • The main benefit of tapping into the RV air brakes for a toad braking setup is that there is a direct connection between the motorhome braking and the towed vehicle's braking. There is no time delay and there are no sensors that need to react to changes to the vehicle's inertia before they do anything. In short, there is synchronization between the two braking systems. As you noted, installation of such systems is a lot more intrusive and complicated. Since you have intentions to trade...

  • Comparing MaxxAir II and Fan-Tastic Vent Ultra Breeze Vent Covers
  • The MaxxAir II RV and Enclosed Trailer Roof Vent Cover # MA86JR and the Fan-Tastic Vent Ultra Breeze Trailer Roof Vent Cover # DMC38FR have very similar dimensions so I doubt anyone would be able to notice any difference in actual ventilation performance from the 1-inch height difference between them. Since the USA-made MaxxAir # MA86JR is both lower in price and has twice as long a warranty (6 years vs. 3 years) I would go with the MaxxAir.

  • Difference Between RV and Residential Ceiling Fans
  • The main differences you'll find between your usual residential fan and a fan intended for use in an RV like the # 277-000086 RV Ceiling Fan from AirForce is that many RV ceiling fans run on 12V DC (although this fan runs on 120V AC power). Another big difference is that most RV ceiling fans are the hugger style, with the motor sitting right up against the ceiling. This is due to the low ceiling height usually found in RV's.

  • Comparing Reese Goose Box Pin Box to Andersen Ultimate for Ram 3500 Short Bed Turning Clearances
  • The Reese Goose Box 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Air Ride Coupler Adapter # RP94720 for Lippert 1621, 1621HD, and 0719 pin boxes will not increase your turning clearances by itself beyond the Andersen Ultimate hitch you have. The distance from the center of the hitch ball coupler to the center of the first row of bolt holes is 17-3/4 inches. The biggest benefit is the air ride suspension along with one less moving part. The only way to increase this is to use an offset hitch ball like the...

  • Comparing Firestone and Air Lift Air Bags for a 2001 Ford F-250 4x4 with 5th Wheel Hitch
  • Firestone Ride-Rite kit # F2550 is going to be a higher quality than Air Lift # AL88390 but both are going to get the job done well. Both kits would work for 5th wheel hitches because they mount on the inboard sides of the frame rails. I have included a link to a video showing installation of the Firestone kit for you. To be able to add or remove air from the bags from the comfort of the truck cab I recommend Level Command kit # F2158.

  • Comparison of Camco # CAM40453 and MaxxAir # MA00-933069 RV Roof Vent Covers
  • Both roof vent covers, Camco part # CAM40453 and MaxxAir part # MA00-933069, have the same purpose and fit on any standard 14 by 14 inch roof vent. Both of them allow you to keep your vent open during rain without water getting inside your trailer. The Camco is slightly smaller at 18-1/2 by 18 inches compared to the MaxxAir at 19 by 18-1/2 inches. The Camco is also about a 1/2 inch shorter in height measuring 8-1/2 inches versus the MaxxAir at 9 inches. With that being said I prefer...

  • Comparison of MaxxAir MaxxFan "Mini Roof Vent and MaxxFan Roof Vent
  • The MaxxAir MaxxFan "Mini" Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan, # MA00-04401M and the MaxxFan Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan, # MA00A04401K are very similar but there is a difference in the profile. The MaxxAir Mini, # MA00-04401M will set at 2-7/8" above the roof when closed compared to 4-1/4" for the # MA00A04401K. The Mini will also work better with a thin roofed RV/Camper as it is compatible with roof thicknesses of down to only 1" where as the # MA00A04401K needs to have a roof at least 2" thick. Otherwise,...

  • Comparison Between Black Coiled Jumper in Kit SM99202 and SM99243
  • I spoke with my contact at SMI and there is not difference between the blue coiled cord # SM99666 and the black cord that was included with part 99202 AFO108 which was replaced by the # SM99243, accept of course color. Both the coiled air hoses, also called a jumpers, connect your towed car to your RV by connecting the operating unit to the coach air assembly. When you are ready to hitch up your car and tow it, simply hook up the coiled air hose at the same time as you hook up your tow bar.
