SPECIFICATIONS
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
A. Choosing Proper Location For Unit
This unit is specifically designed for installation on the roof
of an RV. When determining your cooling requirements, the
following should be considered:
●
Size of RV;
●
Window area (increases heat gain);
●
Amount of insulation in walls and roof;
●
Geographical location where the RV will be
used;
●
Personal comfort level required.
1. For one unit installation: The unit should be
mounted slightly forward of center (front to back)
and centered from side to side.
2. For two unit installations: Install one unit 1/3 and
one unit 2/3’s from front of RV and centered from
side to side.
It is preferred that the unit be installed on a relatively flat
and level roof section measured with the RV parked on a
level surface. See table below for maximum acceptable tilt.

3. After Location Has Been Selected:
a. Check for obstructions in the area where
unit will be installed. See (FIG. 1), (FIG. 2)
& (FIG. 3).
b.
Maintain structural integrity.
Otherwise damage to product and/or RV
could occur.
The roof must be designed to support 130
pounds when RV is in motion. Normally
a 200 lb. static load design will meet this
requirement.
