Advent Replacement Rooftop AC Unit For a 2013 Forest River Salem Cruise Lite 281BHXL  

Question:

I am looking for a replacement ac unit for a 2013 Forest River Salem Cruise Lite 281BHXL. Currently has a 13.5k unit that stopped working. Looking to get either a 13.5 or 15 unit. What would work for my camper? Thanks!

I do see you were looking at the Advent Air RV Air Conditioner # ACM135 which is a 13.5k and will work as a replacement for a current Advent or Dometic air conditioner. While I cannot know exactly what manufacturer AC you currently have on your 2013 Forest River Salem Cruise Lite 281BHXL, do know you may need either a Coleman # C-FACR15SA-A01 or Carrier # ACCARKIT adapter kit if you have one of their systems. We also have a 15K Advent # ACM150 if you want the additional cooling power.

The current ac unit in the camper is a Dometic model 57915.351 so that being said any you recommended will work, but an adapter kit will be necessary correct? Thanks!

@BryceS As you have a Dometic 57915.351 you will be able to use either the 13.5K or 15K rooftop unit above. You will not need an adapter as the AC will connect directly into your Dometic control box under your air distribution box.
