Glenn,

You will need a wall mount thermostat for the ducted unit only.  I have the non ducted and it's in the ceiling cover.  Here is a link with all the specs you will need.  I have found it to be the quietest unit available.

Thanks
Will the wall unit "talk" to the Aqua Hot for heat??

Since Atwood is no longer going to make RV a/c, where does that leave the consumer down the road?

Somebody will step up to the plate, heck for $2800 I could parts shop a custom 13.5 k unit that uses less than 900 watts. Interior noise is a form factor problem squeezing that much air thru the standard tiny opening.

Where did you find this information?  Do you have a link to the source?

Maybe the Houghton units from Australia will be the " future".  Pretty expensive, though.

I think it is most likely a given that Dometic will terminate products that compete directly with its core business since Dometic acquired Atwood... Dometic already killed Atwood's helium absorption fridge. It seems it is easier to nix a product than integrate it.

Looks like, for the moment anyway, they are still selling the Atwood air conditioner line.  Hope that continues for a while, until we are forced to buy new units to replace our OEM Penguins (which are still working just fine...knock wood).

It's kind of sad the state of affairs in the innovation/small business area that we've come to. Gone are the small and independent companies that make innovative products. Consolidation by the money changers and finance gurus has not helped the consumer.
