Product Overview

The Dometic FreshJet 5 Series Electronic 15K Low-Profile Air Conditioner with Heat Pump delivers high-output cooling and efficient electric heating in a compact rooftop design built to directly replace the Penguin II. Engineered for both ducted and non-ducted RV systems, this 15,000 BTU model features a pre-installed Multi-Zone FreshJet control board for simplified setup and seamless compatibility with Dometic’s Connect Essential thermostat (sold separately). At just 10.5" in installed height, it maintains the same mounting footprint while offering improved aerodynamics, quieter interior operation, and a reinforced steel base for long-term durability.

Ideal for new builds, replacements, and upgrades, the FreshJet 5 provides reliable cooling, smoother startups thanks to the built-in hard start, and efficient heat-pump performance—perfect for extending camping comfort without relying on propane. Using modern R32 refrigerant for reduced environmental impact, this unit delivers energy-efficient heating and cooling in a familiar fit. This model requires a ceiling assembly depending on ducted or non-ducted configuration and ships via truck freight due to size and weight.
