2015 Oliver Legacy Elite I air conditioner replacement recommendation

[DBL-R]

Hello everyone, we’re looking for some advice on which A/C unit to replace our original Coleman Airxcel 47201A876 with.

We started this adventure by going to what was our local Oliver dealer here in Denver. Based on their recommendation, we were going to go with the Premier Products Eco-Cool unit.

That was until we discovered that the Eco-Cool’s shroud would cover one of the rear interior lights. Based on Oliver’s recommendation, we decided that wasn’t something we wanted to do.

The dealer is willing to install any other unit we recommend—but, sorry, we don’t do this for a living! 😁 Hence this post.

We’d really appreciate any recommendations from those who have replaced the original Coleman unit, particularly if you’ve found a replacement that fits without modifying the existing installation.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Wow, that's on BIG air handler/plenum! We love our Furrion Chill Cube. The air handler is built into the upper unit making it 3" taller on the outside but it's flush to the interior on the inside. It is also square shaped inside and out, so MUCH smaller the our old Penguin or your Coleman. I had to patch some screw holes on the interior because it was smaller, and not requiring interior screws into the ceiling. Not sure if the Coleman used screws into the ceiling.

If you have a decent amount Ah in LiFePO4 batteries the Chill Cube can run A/C for hours, even days. I have linked page two of my thread here which shows the installation and interior pictures. Later in the thread there is a mention of a model with heat pump if that is of interest to you. There are also mentions of a low-profile unit, but it is the tall non-ducted Chill Cube that is the efficiency beast! 😎
