Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this air conditioner fit my RV?
A: The RF 8500 Series is designed for most RVs with standard roof penetrations. Verify your RV's roof opening dimensions (typically 14.5" x 14.5") before ordering. Check your owner's manual or contact our expert support team for compatibility confirmation.
Q: How loud is the RF 8500 when running?
A: This unit operates at approximately 70-75 decibels, which is standard for roof-mounted RV air conditioners. Sound levels are comparable to most aftermarket and OEM units in this class.
Q: Can I install this myself?
