The overhead air conditioner is generally installed outside the car, and the inner unit is installed on the top of the car.
advantage
1. Space saving: The overhead air conditioner only needs to be installed on the top of the RV and will not occupy the space in the RV.
2. Anti-seismic: Because the overhead air conditioner is specially designed for RVs, it has a strong anti-vibration function.
3. There are many air vents: it is usually installed in the middle of the vehicle. Because there are air vents all around, the air will be very uniform and fast, and the cooling will be fast.
shortcoming
1. Height limit: The outdoor unit of the overhead air conditioner will generally increase the height of the RV by 20cm-30cm. When encountering the height limit rod, you should pay more attention to whether it can pass, and measure the height of the body and the height of the overhead air conditioner in detail before purchasing. , choose the motorhome that suits you.
2. Restriction of working conditions: Due to the limitation of technical conditions, the working temperature range of some RV overhead air conditioners is between 4°C and 43°C, that is, if the temperature is lower than 4°C and higher than 43°C, it will not work and turn on normally.
3. High price: The price of overhead air conditioners is generally between 8000-12000 yuan.
Bottom air conditioner
Bottom-mounted air conditioners are generally hidden under the bed in the RV or at the bottom of the deck sofa.
advantage
1. Does not take up space: Install it in hidden places, such as under the sofa or under the bed.
2. You can design the air outlet according to your own needs, and you can design it according to the specific space of your RV.
shortcoming
1. There is noise: Because the bottom-mounted air conditioner will be installed under furniture such as beds or sofas, it may cause some noise.
2. The air inlet of the RV air conditioner is low. If there is water on the road, it may have a certain impact on the air conditioner or damage the air conditioner.
3. Restriction of working conditions: Due to the limitation of technical conditions, some bottom-mounted air conditioners will not work normally when the temperature is lower than 4°C and higher than 43°C.
4, the price is relatively high.
Home Air Conditioner and Special Air Conditioner for RV
advantage
1. Flexible installation: The split unit has two parts, an indoor unit and an outdoor unit. The installation is flexible and you can choose the installation location independently.
2. Less noise: The air conditioner itself is small in the home, and the external unit of the air conditioner is outside the car.
3. The price is lower: Generally, the price of a small 1 or 1 household split air conditioner is only two or three thousand yuan.
shortcoming
1. Weight: The space and weight of household air conditioners are relatively large.
2. Weak shock resistance: The shock resistance level of the household air conditioner design cannot meet the requirements of the vehicle driving. If it is used for a long time, the components of the air conditioner will be loose and deformed during the driving of the vehicle, posing a safety hazard.
The special air conditioner for RVs is specially designed for mobile RVs. It has been specially designed to avoid driving vibration and impurity intrusion, which ensures safety. The disadvantage is that it is noisy and relatively expensive.
Low voltage air conditioner and 220V air conditioner
Although 12V and 24V parking air conditioners are safer to use electricity, they require a large amount of current and require very high battery capacity. The 220V parking air conditioner can be connected to the mains when parking in the camp, but in the absence of an external power supply, it can rely on large-capacity batteries and inverters for a short time, and it needs to be used with a generator for a long time.
