The living room and bedroom comfort controls will be used to operate

Aqua-Hot heat exchangers. Preheat the Aqua-Hot by selecting desired heat
source using switches located in galley. The living room comfort control will
operate the dinette and living room heat exchangers. The bedroom comfort con-
trol in Zone One setting will operate the bedroom exchanger. The Zone Two
setting will operate the hallway and bathroom exchangers. Depressing the

FAN

and

MODE

button simultaneously will alternate between Zone One and Zone

Two. Depress the

DOWN

button to select the desired temperature.

NOTE: The private bathroom heat exchanger is controlled by the

switch in the private bathroom. The bathroom blower motor will

cycle on and off with hallway exchanger when the switch is turned

on. The private bathroom exchanger is switched due to the amount of

convection heat by the exchanger.

The motorhome is equipped with two 13,500 BTU roof air condition-

ers. A third roof mounted air conditioner is installed on all 43 foot models.
The roof air conditioners operate from 120 Volts AC only, either by shore
power or the generator. Operations are controlled by the 12 Volt DC com-
fort control. The electronics in the comfort control use a type of telephone
patch cord to send a low voltage signal to the roof air conditioner’s circuit
board. The circuit board controls the desired roof air functions and LP-Gas
furnace operation. The refrigeration process in the roof air is primarily the
same as the dash air conditioning or a household type refrigerator. It func-
tions as an enclosed system. The refrigeration process repeats in a cycle.
The refrigerant is drawn into the compressor. The high pressure vapor is
sent to a condenser where the heat is expelled into the atmosphere. The
vapor leaves the condenser as a high pressure liquid. This liquid is forced
into a metered capillary tube, and then into the evaporator or low side pres-
sure. The refrigerant changes from liquid form to a vapor as the heat is
extracted. The vapor is drawn back into the compressor to start the cycle
again. When operating the roof air in the heat pump mode, the refrigerant
flow is reversed blowing the heated air into the interior of the motorhome.

NOTE: Air conditioning systems will freeze the moisture in the

air depending on the humidity content. Under high humidity

conditions it is recommended to set the blower fan to High speed.

The heat pump mode offers heat by using the air conditioner as a heat

source. The air conditioning principal is reversed, supplying heated air to the
ceiling registers instead of refrigerated air. There are ambient temperature limi-
tations of the heat pump mode.
