Coleman-Mach Mach 3 Power Saver 13,500 BTU RV Air Conditioner with Heat Pump | Black | R410A | Model 48208-0980
The Coleman-Mach Mach 3 Power Saver 48208-0980 delivers dependable 13,500 BTU cooling performance with an integrated heat pump and energy-saving Power Saver technology, all housed in a sleek black shroud that complements modern RV exteriors. Designed to maximize cooling while minimizing electrical demand, this rooftop air conditioner helps reduce the likelihood of tripped campground breakers, allowing you to operate additional appliances without sacrificing comfort.
Built for RV owners who frequently camp on 30-amp service, generator power, or limited electrical hookups, the Mach 3 Power Saver utilizes a high-efficiency compressor, high-efficiency fan motor, and oversized heat transfer coils to deliver maximum cooling performance while drawing fewer amps than conventional rooftop air conditioners.
When outdoor temperatures begin to cool, the integrated heat pump provides economical electric heating by reversing the refrigeration cycle, helping reduce propane consumption during mild weather and extending your camping season.
As part of the renowned Coleman-Mach Signature Series, the Mach 3 Power Saver features heavy-duty construction including oversized evaporator and condenser coils with raised lance fins, all-copper refrigerant tubing, gas-flux brazed joints, a corrosion-resistant drain pan, sealed motor shaft, and stainless-steel hardware for years of dependable operation.
Designed to fit any standard 14-inch x 14-inch rooftop opening, the Mach 3 Power Saver is an excellent replacement for dozens of Coleman-Mach rooftop air conditioners used on travel trailers, fifth wheels, truck campers, toy haulers, and motorhomes.
