A heat pump reverses the refrigeration cycle, pulling warmth from outside air and moving it into the cabin. That gives you supplemental heat from the same rooftop unit that cools in summer, without burning propane. It works well down to around 40°F outside, below which you will want the furnace.

Dometic offers heat pump versions across several series, including the Penguin II, the FreshJet 4, and the low-profile FreshJet 5, in 13,500 and 15,000 BTU, ducted and non-ducted, in white and black. Newer units run R32 refrigerant.

Rooftop units ship on their own, so budget for a matching ceiling assembly and thermostat. And a 15,000 BTU unit draws around 16 amps, so a soft start kit is worth considering on 30-amp service or a generator.

Which Dometic RV air conditioner with heat pump fits my rig?

Compatibility depends on your roof opening (standard 14" x 14" vent cutout for most units), available amperage (13,500 BTU models typically draw around 13 amps, 15,000 BTU models closer to 16 amps), and whether your RV is set up for ducted or non-ducted distribution. Check the model number on your existing AC shroud before ordering. For non-ducted setups, pair the rooftop unit with a matching Dometic non-ducted ceiling assembly with wall thermostat or the FreshJet 5 heat pump ceiling assembly.

How does the heat pump function on a Dometic RV AC?

A heat pump reverses the refrigeration cycle to pull warm air from outside and move it into the cabin, giving you supplemental heat without burning LP gas. It runs efficiently down to about 40°F outside ambient. Below that, the unit cannot pull usable heat from the air and you will need to switch to your furnace. Heat pump models like the 9620017217 give you a second heat source on shore power, which is useful for shoulder-season camping when overnight lows do not justify firing the propane furnace.

Will a Dometic heat pump AC reduce inrush current on startup?

Standard Dometic heat pump units draw significant inrush current when the compressor cycles on, which can trip breakers on 30-amp service or when running off a generator. Adding a soft start kit reduces that startup spike by up to 75%. Browse the RV air conditioner soft start kits for compatible options that work with most rooftop heat pump models.

What is included with a replacement unit like the Dometic 9620017217?

The 9620017217 ships as the rooftop unit only, including the compressor, condenser, evaporator, and shroud. You will need a matching ceiling assembly (ducted or non-ducted) and the appropriate thermostat or control kit to complete the install. Confirm whether your existing ceiling assembly is compatible with the new rooftop unit before ordering. If you need help confirming fitment, text or call 817-984-1852.
