Dometic Penguin II A/C workmanship
Over the last week, I've helped a friend install two of the above A/Cs. Both were 15K Btus with one having a heat pump. The motor mounting bolts were loose on both units. This caused the aluminum fans to rub against the plastic housings. Both fans were bent on their shafts, causing severe wobbling and vibration. We were able to straighten the fans enough to get most of the wobble out. I think even this minor imbalance will shorten the motor life. Buyer beware!
