Re: Pro-Heat/Carrier NEW Refridegerant

Hope it was not a Mistake: Just installed one on this truck. On my KW (new) the Pro-Heat was trouble after problem after problem. Than it was repaired (rewired) and was flawless for over a year. Your RIGHT Goodyear Gator Belts, and ALWAYS use the Kabota filters, Napas leak oil seal will not sit tight.

After swearing I would never buy another I found the dependability from my Second truck to be Great and others I kept asking who bought after I did not have the problems I was stuck with.

So far so good, I will in 6 months let you know what I am expirencing. I only need AC and if I could have put a roof top on I like A Teams set up probably would have. I have the Bunk Heater so I will not need to run this except for Charging Batteries in the Winter.

New Unit starts like a Dream, no longer does one need to press Start button it does it Auto, if it fails it retries again. Upon Delivery it was very hard to start fuel was not getting to unit since than NO FURTHER PROBLEMS, has started on first try everytime (2 months old). I wanted either the battery AC or the Rigmaster but that dealer after 7 (SEVEN) calls failed to ever give me a price so I had to do something. Same dealer who installed the Bunk Heater. Since my check cleared and I have had nothing but compliments about the service I recieved I do not understand the lack of a Professional Call back? Hint Hint ya reading in Romulis?

I love the idea of this set up, the Bunk heater uses very little fuel in the Winter, and the APU probably 1/4 to 1/3 to cool in the summer. Much less than Ideling the truck.

Now the real question? How much would one guestimate I can save by these two systems in a year (260 days out a year).
