Benefits Of Ducted Air Conditioners

There are several advantages to choosing underbunk air conditioners for your caravan:

Space-saving design: Underbunk or ducted air conditioners are mounted discreetly under a bed, bench seat, or cabinet, freeing up valuable rooftop space for other gear and reducing the height of your vehicle.

Weight reduction: Compared to rooftop units, underbunk air conditioners are much lighter, reducing the overall weight on your caravan's roof. This can be crucial for maintaining safe handling and fuel efficiency.

Flexibility in placement: Ducted air conditioners are a popular option within the underbunk category. These systems allow for the compressor unit to be mounted remotely under the bed or in a cupboard, with the air outlet unit positioned elsewhere in the caravan for optimal airflow. This flexibility is ideal for caravans with weight limitations or specific layout considerations.

Underbunk Air Conditioner FAQS:

• 1. Is a roof top or under bunk air conditioner unit better for our pop top application?

  Firstly, the roof top installation will be more time laborious as a hole has to be cut in the roof, 240-volt power has to be run and a H - frame will more than likely be required for structure and rigidity. Therefore the labor factor will be higher than having an underbunk unit installed and will be costlier on the hip pocket.

  Installing a under bunk unit is more cost effective and you will lose a minimal amount of space as the under bunk is installed under your bed or dinette seating arrangement, so it will all boil down to the owner's personal preference.

• 2. Where is the best place to mount underbunk air conditioners?

  Picking a good location will help maximise storage space and the unit's airflow requirements.

  • Consider an area with good ventilation.
  • Consider where you plan to run your ducting. The shorter the ducting the more efficient the air conditioner will be.
  • Check beneath your vehicle is clear from obstructions as the intake and outtake pipes sit proud and need clearance.
  • Keep in mind things like river crossings and ensure you have enough clearance.

• 3. What is an underbunk air conditioner?

  An underbunk air conditioner is a compact cooling unit designed to be installed under a caravan bed, seat, or storage compartment. Unlike rooftop air conditioners, it saves roof space and helps lower the vehicle’s center of gravity.

• 4. How does an underbunk air conditioner work?

  It works similarly to a household air conditioner, using a compressor and refrigerant gas to cool the air. The unit draws warm air from the caravan, cools it, and then circulates it back through air ducts or vents.
