Installing the Condenser

The Dometic condenser may be installed either under or behind the sleeper. These installations (and the parts in the kit) are for an installation underneath the sleeper. If you plan on mounting the generator and/or generator radiator underneath the sleeper fairings, we recommend mount the HVAC condenser on the rear of the sleeper.

Mount the condenser to the mounting plate provi- ded. The quick connects should be on the end of the mounting plate with the side extension. Use the nylok nuts provided and snug all bolts. This mounting plate is specially designed to fit under the Volvo L‑5 chassis. It mounts midline of the truck, just behind the transmission and in front of the exhaust pipe. The “fingers” of the plate fit up under a cab support. The rear flange slips over another support. Mount with the four stainless steel self-tapping screws provided.
