4.29.2010 - FREE, YOU PAY THE PACKAGING/SHIPPING…

Removed from our ’87 PT38…

Replaced the three 13,500 A/C units on our Bird. Two of the A/C units are not worth saving; the third unit has worked fine for 24 years. 

The three ceiling assemblies, mechanical, are in good shape and include the heat units; I tested the heat units about 5 years ago and they worked then; filters are good.

The three exterior covers are in good condition.  

So, everything is for FREE when you pay for the packaging and shipping. No charge for my time. The units are the low profile Dometic 13,500 units, beige color roof top/ceiling.

Curt, Would be interested in knowing what you used as replacement units. Are they more efficient, quieter, have better heat strips. I am asking because I had some Carrier Air V units in another bus, that worked well for cooling, then I added heat strips, and they did not work as expected. There were low and high speeds, with the high almost nullifying the heat coming out. A low and medium speed would have been much better. My units are the original Fridgiking, (for 1977), and may have to replace either one or both this year. Thanks, George Burke 1977 FC31 Charlotte

Curt,



Can I assume you had to change out all the thermostats also? How much trouble to run the new thermostat cables? Where did you pick up the 12V from?



Thanks,

Hi Mike,

Judy and I will be down to San Diego then back to South Lake Tahoe in a week. I'm interested in the exterior covers. I could drive through to pick them up if no one else has claimed them.



Thanks,

Mike,

The ceiling assemblies are the mechanical control, no thermostat. Same as the original A/Cs.
