requirements:
DIRECTION OF TRAVEL
DIRECTION OF TRAVEL
- The air conditioner should be situated as
centrally as possible on the van, to ensure even
air distribution.
- The front of the unit MUST face the direction
of travel; failure to follow this instruction will
result in damage to the condenser fans.
- If the caravan is over 23’ in length, or has an
unusually high heat load (see General
Operating Information section regarding
expectations about insulation etc.),
Aircommand would recommend 2 or more
units to cool effectively.

- When considering the installation position
remember to check for clearance around the
plenum inside the van.
- Avoid an installation position where a
bulkhead, cupboard or light fitting could
interfere with the discharge air flow from the
plenum.
It is important that the unit is never
more than 5° from the horizontal and
the rear of the unit should never be
higher than the front
- Contact Aircommand if your installation
differs significantly
