Dometic Penguin II Ceiling Assembly for Ducted - Pre-Installed Multi Zone
2 products
What is a Dometic Penguin II ducted ceiling assembly for multi-zone installations?
It is the lower interior portion of a Dometic Penguin II rooftop air conditioner system, pre-wired and configured for ducted multi-zone setups where the thermostat is controlled at a central CCC2 (Comfort Control Center) panel rather than at the ceiling unit itself. This collection covers the ceiling-side hardware, return air grilles, and damper components needed to complete a ducted Penguin II install when the rig already has a multi-zone control board managing temperature across separate areas.
How do I know if I need the ducted multi-zone version instead of a non-ducted assembly?
Check two things on your RV: the ductwork in the ceiling and the thermostat location. If conditioned air travels through ceiling ducts to multiple registers and your thermostat is mounted on a wall (not on the AC itself), you need a ducted assembly. If your rig has a single zone with a wall thermostat and no ducts, look at the Dometic non-ducted ceiling assembly with wall thermostat instead. Always confirm your existing model number and control board configuration before ordering.
Will this ceiling assembly work with my existing Penguin II rooftop unit?
These ceiling assemblies are designed to pair with current Dometic Penguin II rooftop units (model series 640315C and related variants) running on a CCC2 multi-zone control system. They are not compatible with single-zone Brisk II setups or with Coleman-Mach rooftop units. If you run a Coleman ducted system, see the Coleman Power Saver HP ceiling assembly for ducted installations. Confirm your rooftop unit's model number and your control board part number before ordering.
Does the ceiling assembly include the roof compression gasket and mounting hardware?
The ceiling assembly itself covers the interior components: the plenum, return air grille, filter, and the multi-zone control wiring harness. The roof compression gasket between the rooftop unit and the RV roof, along with the long mounting bolts, ships with the rooftop air conditioner, not the ceiling assembly. If you are replacing a full system, you will need both halves. If you also want to reduce compressor startup load on the new install, the Coleman RV air conditioner soft start kit page explains how soft start hardware lowers inrush current at startup.
How is this assembly shipped and what should I expect at delivery?
Ceiling assemblies ship by ground freight in a protective carton. Inspect the box for crush damage before signing, since the plastic shroud and damper motors can crack if the package was dropped in transit. Note any damage on the delivery receipt and photograph it.
