Some owners have height restrictions.  This unit "stands tall" at about 14", a good 5" taller than our OEM Dometic.   A hard deal killer for besome owners for sure.

Agreed, but... Looking at the specs I see a 3.25" difference (14.5" - 11.25"). It would be 5" to your low-profile Houghton.

I promised @Tideline77 measurements which I took yesterday. My son Adam climbed up the scaffolding and place an 8' 1x3" on top of the A/C unit hanging off to the curbside. I measured the height and did not believe the number, so I measured it in the same way off the streetside, same number! I measured exactly 9' 8.5" on BOTH sides!

This is great news and thank you for measuring !

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I have since updated the post.  The 5" increase is from my Houghton A/C height.  JD's remeasured and it is 3.25" higher than the Dometic Penguin II.

In our case, there is no way I could back it into our storage area.  Especially since there is a ramp at the entrance and that kicks the area behind Ollie's axles up even further. So if height of your storage areas is close, it would be wise to double check.

I saw the Furrion Chill Cube today at the RV Super Show in Tampa and it is indeed very impressive.  And now the really good news, Furrion will introduce a low profile model in April according to the gentleman that gave me the demo.  It is advertised as 15,000 BTU's and also has a heat pump.

Looks like it's just a rebadged Turbro / Pioneer.

Thank you Mossey, for this information! I don’t follow tech news much, just research what I need when I’m working on something.

I’d hate to be contrary, but I believe this product hit the market last year! It has other brand names like Turbro and Pioneer!

It sure looks like these models (in shape and position of condenser fan). This is likely another clone. Too bad, but TBD! 😎

And it also looks like Furrion can't help but fib on Btu's. Turbro advertises 13.5k (tests at 12.5k) and they've bumped the rating up on it to 15K. 

The heat pump function puts out 17k so maybe they're taking using the average Btu's between heat and cool? 😂
