What Is The Smallest AC Unit For Adding AC System To A Cargo Trailer/Camper
Question:
Good morning, I am converting a 6x10 cargo trailer into a camper and am looking to add a roof top ac unit. I am looking for the smallest unit that will be able to do the job.

Hello Tyson. The smallest AC unit we offer is the Advent Air Low Profile RV Air Conditioner and this will be a great option for you. Since this is a smaller trailer you can definitely get away with a 13,500 BTU unit. These AC units require the roof to be between 2-1/2" and 5" thick, so please do keep that in mind during your build. For a complete AC system I recommend the following:
- Advent Air Low Profile RV Air Conditioner - 13,500 Btu - White # ADV79FR
- Air Distribution Box w/ Built-In Thermostat for Advent Air RV Air Conditioners - White # ACDB
- Start Capacitor for Advent Air RV Air Conditioners # ACMSCKIT
I have linked a few install videos for you below.
