Dometic 14 Air Conditioner User Manual


 
air conditioning choices
There are two basic types of auxiliary air systems:
• Self-contained “package” units
• Split systems
The self-contained unit is designed to be wholly mounted inside
the truck, usually under a berth or seat or inside a side storage
locker. All of the air conditioning components, including the com-
pressor, condenser, evaporator, blower and power supply, are
mounted on a single low-profile chassis with an aluminum cover.
The system’s closed refrigerant loop is precharged and sealed at
the factory. Inside air is pulled across the evaporator coil, and
cooled air is blown through a flexible duct to a discharge grill for
discharge into the living area. Hot air is discharged from the con-
denser through cutouts in the floorboard.
Dometic’s patented split systems consist of two separate modules. The outside unit contains the condenser and
cooling fan. It can be bolted horizontally to the underside or vertically to the back of the sleeper. The inside unit
contains the compressor, evaporator, blower, power-logic box and other associated components.The compressor is
covered by a sheet-metal cover. The inside unit is mounted
under a berth or seat or in a side storage locker. The two
units are connected by reusable precharged quick-connect
refrigerant linesets. The system is designed so that both units
automatically charge to the correct refrigerant pressure as
soon as the linesets are connected. No special tools are
required.
Each approach offers advantages and disadvantages.A self-con-
tained unit is simpler to install and maintain, since it does not
have any external refrigerant lines. It is also less expensive
than a split system of the same BTU capacity. On the other
hand, it takes more interior space, and it requires cutting
holes in the floor for air to flow to and from the condenser. A
split system, on the other hand, has more installation flexibility
and uses less interior space. It also is quieter, since the con-
denser fan is located outside the truck.
Both types of air conditioning systems are available with a
selection of built-in electrical heat modules. The heat is blown
through the same ducts and grills and controlled by the same
thermostat. They can also be used in conjunction with a diesel-
fired heater if desired, under control of the same thermostat.
