Best Marine Air Conditioners? Best Brand, Support & Warranty?
Boaters often wonder which brand makes the best marine air conditioners when looking to install a new unit.
To be honest, most marine air conditioners from all the major brands are solid and will do the job, as long as they’ve been installed correctly. However, the keyword here is most. You want to improve your odds of being satisfied with your A/C purchase by researching which company’s units have the least number of complaints… and if there is a problem, how that company handles it.
Notes if replacing a Dometic DTU6, DTG6 or ECD6 – 115V
The CTM CT-6 115V marine air conditioning unit works as a good replacement for the Dometic DTG6 – 115V (205160066), DTU6 – 115V (205160060), or ECD6 – 115V (207500306). There are some specs that should be taken into consideration when replacing one of the units previously mentioned.
– Because the CT-6 unit comes with the Universal Control board, it will work with the controller you currently have. Supported controllers included: SMXir, Passport I/O, Smart Touch, Elite II.
– Waterline connections should be the same as the unit you are replacing, the CT-unit has a standard 5/8″ water connection.
– The CT-6 Unit has a 4-inch ducting ring whereas the Dometic comes with a 5 inch. It is a quick replacement as the ducting can be easily cinched down with a clamp.
– Dimensions wise this unit is very similar to the one you are replacing, so It shouldn’t be a major issue. However, it is suggested you double-check in order to avoid any issues when installing.
