furrion ac units

Going to replace my Dometic ac units on my 2001 320 with Furrion units want to go with the Mico-air easy touch thermostat do I get the Dometic model because that is the model on the wall now? Or because I am switching to Furrion units get that model and wiring should still work? Thanks for the help.

Do a search on installing the Furrion unit there was something about getting the Aqua Hot to work after the installation.

If you are installing the Furrion Chill 15k, and assuming you also will want to control both AC's from the one thermostat, (multi-control)... You will need the Furrion model of the Micro-air Easy Touch Thermostat. On the Micro-air website, select Thermostat Brand, (Furrion). This will bring you to one of two choices to replace the Furrion T-stat. Typically the "Furrion Multi-Control Replacement" model is what you want.

When purchasing your new units, no need to buy the Furrion T-stat if you are going to "finish" with the new Micro-air Easy Touch. Some vendors will bundle everything together... Just need the AC units and the multi-control cards for the AC units.

Wiring is not to hard. Aqua hot wiring seems to vary by coach. Mine was simple, a call for "heat" by the thermostat triggers the multi-control card to close a relay, (normally open). My U320 uses a ground connection to start the blowers, very simple. If you run into AH issues, Rudy on this forum is FANTASTIC.  He decoded the AH control operation for me...  ;D
