Installing a Furrion Chill RV Roof A/C Complete System 

Hey James, don't forget to take some time off to enjoy your own Beaver, not just use it as a power source!

Dang. James you get three punches in the man card for hoisting that AC unit up there. Well done you.

How did you know that I was about to replace a Carrier AC with a furrion chill? 😃 Thanks so much for doing what you do!

You need a lift of some kind for these larger projects. Thanks for sharing, you make this look so easy.

You have a lot of faith in that ladder, hats off on another job well done 👍

Before hauling that thing up, be sure to check your ladder rating, folks! Fishing wire is my least favorite thing to do. You make it look easy.

The dropping of the tools got me! Lol! I do that constantly…it’s almost a habit. I have installed a few of the Furrions. They are awesome.

Geez, I missed this repair James, You did a excellent job, Thanks.

“It’s always better to be lucky than good…” I subscribed right after that statement. 🤪

I'm so glad you showed the wire routing trick using a cut off fish tape and a drill. That's definitely a trick which is going to come in handy for me at some point. Thanks!

What an informative video. Great job guy.

I changed out all 3 airs on our toy hauler to power-saver Coleman units last month. I wanted to run all 3 airs with the generator, and sometimes two airs would trip a breaker (forget about starting 3....). Successful, BTW. The power-saver units are REALLY light on the power consumption. Weirdly the power-saver 13.5K units also seem to blow colder than the Mach 15 units it came with. The first one, we made a sled to slide it up the ladder. That worked, but it sucked. The next two I carried up on my shoulder. It was tough, and I could have dropped one, but it was easier than the sled idea by far...

We installed one on our travel trailer and had an issue with the controller going bad on it. We contacted Furion and there team was a joy to work with trying to troubleshoot the issue. They provided the controller and thermostat under warranty without any hassle.

I've really enjoyed your last two videos. They showcased your logic, craftsmanship and concern for your clients. I found humor in the stress over the thermostat location. My OCD would have notched the wall stud so the thermostat could have been placed mid-panel. Thank you so much for sharing your work with us. I'm constantly amazed at what you reveal, while telling myself I should have known that.

It’s an absolute pleasure watching you repair something that for me would be a nightmare 😬 You made it look so easy so when I get my motorhome guess where I’ll be coming! Thank you for letting us share your work as what appeared to be such a serious problem turned into a breeze 💨 I’m impressed James 😉🥂💫

James you are a star!!

I sure hope you stay hydrated, love your videos.

Dang! If you don’t already struggle with back issues I guarantee you will have them in the future with the way you get the AC units on top of the motorhomes. It’s not the age it’s the mileage you put on your body. 😳😣 Like watching your channel and learning. Be safe. 🙏🏼

Very neat install James.

Your videos are fantastic! Really enjoy them and learn a lot. Thanks for making them and sharing your experience & knowledge.

I'll just say this about the Furrion Chill. 2 years ago I ordered one from ETrailer to replace our inadequate Coleman Mach 13k btu. The Furrion arrived at my house busted in multiple spots due to all the plastic in the cover and pan. I sent it back and ordered another. It arrived in even worse shape. I would have picked it up in person, but they were not allowing that due to Covid protocols. I then cancelled the order and went to a local RV dealer and ordered a Dometic Brisk 2 15k btu. Yes, it has the capacitive touch thermostat, but if you use it correctly and don't press on it like you're pressing a button it's fine. This is explained in the owners manual and has not been an issue for us. Also, it has a metal pan and is more robustly built than the 2 busted Furrions I have seen. That's been over a year and I have not looked back. I see a lot of new trailers have switched to Furrion. I wonder if this is simply due to supply issues or something else. Regardless, I am personally not impressed with the way the Furrion units are built. Their features look good on paper, but time will tell how they hold up.

Great job James! Super enjoyable to watch and learn!

Love your workmanship and attention to detail. You've earned another subscriber.

Really enjoy watching you work. Professional, expert knowledge and someone we can trust. We need more like you. Thank you.

Love your videos!! Very informative and full of suspense! Keep up the good work!

Love watching your videos, your repairs are so good and thorough. Like how you take the time to explain what you are doing. Also love your bloopers!!!!!!!!

Excellent work and love the full length repair!

We at CT Mobile RV out of Millbrook Alabama installed over 50 of these this year. We love them and is the only unit we sell. Also we have never had an service call on them. We have measured 31 degree air coming out of the vents

As always nicely done and making it look easy

Great video like always James, thank you for sharing your expertise. Happy trails!

Most excellent work James. Thank for taking us through the play by play... and as always, the bloopers!! ...and sooooo close to 50K Subs!!!!!!

Great work sir! I appreciate your videos and information!!! Thank you very much for all your videos!!! You do outstanding work sir…great install and even a great cleanup. I wish you were closer to Michigan!!!! Safe travels!!!

That is a nice looking AC, and a super clean and professional installation.

Great video! Thanks man.

Thanks for the way you make the job appear so easy and I get that is from so many years of getting good on the installs. Enjoy following you

Nice job James, I really like your smart work since!!! You always do an amazing job!!!

I really enjoy watching your videos. Definitely learning a lot more about RV repairs.

Great amount of information. Great job!!

Always awesome watching an artist at work.

I replaced my original colmans 1@ 19 years old and one at 21 years old ….with the power saver Mach 3 13.5 BTU no heat pump at a max draw of 10 amps on high…which I need as I have a 30 amp coach with two ac I hope they run as long as the originals…

Great work !!! Loved the outtakes at the end, just reminds us all that you have a lot of work to do after your job is done with the editing for RU-vid. Thanks for all your hard work.

Excellent video as always. Perfect amount of detail.

Nice work. Thanks for sharing this. 🍻✌

Thank you for the video.

Great video! I have the exact RV and AC unit I had to fix last year with a new solenoid that was hard to find. Now I can follow this for my upgrade.

Beautiful job. You make it look easy boss!

Awesome video, thanks

Nice to see you take pride in your work. Thank you for the video.

Congrats in advance for 50k subscribers!

Congratulations 50k !

Another great job!

You always do such nice installs. You always go the extra steps to make it neat and clean and work properly. It’s a shame more techs and service centers don’t do the same. Very nice work.

You make it look so easy. Thanks for the current draw test at full compressor load. Real world info like that gives us DIY'ers valuable lithium battery / solar system planning info because the manufacturers test these units in a lab where they are not installed to duct work etc. Thanks James.

Very well done!

Great job, I appreciate your attention to detail. The owners are going to be very happy with the new unit.

Thank you for posting this video On the Furrion Chill rv roof AC. Been looking at them in case I need to replace our. Keep up the good work.👍

Nice job, enjoyed the video

Friggin awesome video. Thanks for lugging the camera around doing two jobs at once

another job done! it's nice to see someone that uses their head to get it done with what you have not with what you can go get !!!! please take care of your back!

You truly are a master of your trade , I learn by watching, thank you James for educating the masses

Most awesome install. Love the bloopers…

Your work quality is the best there is.

Its nice to see that Furrion makes something good. I have had nothing but issues with their Stoves and Convection Ovens.

Yes I like these “get it done”repair videos of yours. Thanks buddy.

Great video!! I like your attention to detail and thorough explanation.

Great video James! I liked seeing you open up the wall and put new wires in the ceiling. If I ever have to do it... Hope not!😁

Great as always!

Awesome video James!

You made it look easy . Great info. Thank you.

Hey James, Glad to see you got yourself a couple scaffolds, safer and saves a LOT of up and downs

THANK YOU FOR THE INFO ON THE Furrion a/c really din't know wicth one to buy

Another great video Jim…thank you!!!!

I bet this ac change and all your knowledge to seal everything up (which some repair places would skip because you would never see it) will be a huge upgrade. Great job 😎👍

Great quality work.

I have a jayco and have to fix my ac thank you for this video.

excellent work, very professional and high quality

Wow I have to hand it to you. I just replaced my roof ac and I had my 2 20 year old boys help me pull it up!! Super man lol!!

Nice job

James, recognizing all the work going into not just the replacement of the a/c unit but the time spent editing this installment as well, I had to watch every commercial knowing just what all you went threw to make this a professional installment. Great job on the installation as well as the editing. 👍👍

Using that piece of fish tape on the drill was very cool. Will be stealing that idea 🙂 Excellent work!

Great video, love how detail you are in cleaning and all installation. I tape all wiring as well, don't trust just wire nut or any connection without tape. Again Great video !

Was great to see you use the wago connectors, been using them for a few years now.

This is a great channel bro. Nobody shows this stuff.

Great job

Great video .

love this so cool

Great job! And he does it all mostly One-Handed! Thx!

Another fantastic job sure still wish I was 35 hrs younger I would like to appreciate with you, but at 76 ya keep me entertained and informed if I have a problem with my own unit. 😎👌

Nice pull job thru the roof 😉

I clenched a little when you started going up that little ladder with that AC unit. I've had that exact ladder fail on me before. Great video too by the way.

i went to lippert school few months ago! was amazing all paid for!

Awsome work man!

Great Job!

I don’t trust anything ever lol 😂 I can relate to that! Very refreshing to see a professional that takes pride in their work! I would drive to you to get work done!

Well, this video is helping me as I have to replace my old one on my 2003 R-Vision trail lite Motorhome. Thanks for this video.

Love this video as well

Great ideas for our 2006 Monaco

Very good work. A bit tedious for a normal Jo like me but then, if you need to do it, then, you have to do it. Thanks for the video.

Nice looking unit and priced rite

Appreciate the run down and important tips on what to look for with air dams for intake and exhaust sections of ac how they need to be sealed well etc to not circulate cold air within the unit. I'm going to take my lower plastic section off next couple days to inspect how well winnebago did the install, based on normal winnebago operating procedures probably not to well lol. 😂
