So there's a few things that are going to be needed in order to install the Advent air conditioners, and for a tent trailer I do recommend going with the smaller 13,500 Btu. But the first thing you need to do is ensure you have a roof that is 2-1/2" to 5" thick in order to support the unit; you will also need to open a 14-1/4" long x 14-1/4" wide hole for the unit. Adding this AC will require not only the main AC unit, but also an air distribution box.
For that you can use one of the following 13,500 Btu ACs, depending on if you want white or black for color:
- Black: Advent Air RV Air Conditioner with Air Distribution Box and Start Capacitor # ACM135BC
- White: Advent Air RV Air Conditioner with Air Distribution Box and Start Capacitor # ACM135C
The start capacitor is going to be needed to ensure your AC always has enough power to start up. I have added a link below to a video showing an installation of this unit that I recommend watching as it will be a really helpful guide for the process.
