Dometic Air Conditioner Parts

Dometic parts can be very expensive if you are repairing an air conditioner, or a refrigerator for that matter. While the most expensive part is the motor in most cases, things that can go wrong are things like a defective or burned up heat pump. This is precisely what went out on our dometic duo therm air conditioner. We not only replaced the heat pump, but also the shroud and gaskets within the AC.

Most models however are quite reliable, and may need minor maintenance on occasion. If you notice major changes with the temperature fluctuating, this is a good sign you will need to replace some parts. Don’t panic, just call a local RV air conditioner repairman and have them come out to access what you will need replaced. We have seen many duotherm brisk air conditioner units have parts replaced this past summer even though they are good units. This is usually due to a lack of care. Getting an owners manual can save you a lot of headaches. If all else fails and you do not want to spend the possible hundreds of dollars to repair a unit that may be valued at a few hundred dollars, then the next and obvious choice is to just buy a new unit.

If you do go with a new Motorhome or travel trailer air conditioner, you should consider the Duotherm Penguin which has a height of only 9-1/2 inches above the roofline. This is considered to be a low profile RV air conditioner unit, and does have a sleeker look. You will end up spending more money on these AC’s, but the ease of use and sleekness may be well worth it to those not wanting something so bulky.
