Noise and vibration problems with Dometic rv air conditioners

That is great news. It is always amazing how someone can put a product out on the market knowing it is sub standard, and let others figure out what is wrong with it, instead of doing it right the first time.

They added an additional gasket to keep the compressor bolts from banging on the roof plus a couple of other fixes and now the A/c's are normal sounding. Normal in this case isn't perfect but we can at least hear the TV.

We also had our rv repair guy look at the air conditioner. He helped the problem a little by moving it so it was not resting against an aluminum strut which stopped the trailer from vibrating, but it still makes a lot of noise, although it is slightly improved. Our friends who have a Holiday Rambler with a Duo-Therm A/C unit have no where near the noise we have with ours - and it cools quickly and efficiently. We'll see what NH says when we stop by there in August.

I also was in a unit with Duo-Therm and I could hardly hear it running.

How about some feed back after your trip to NH. Thanks for the reply.

Yeah, we just bought a new heat pump because ours was 3 months out of warranty when it died. the new one vibrates a lot more. Hoping it will settle down.
