My HVAC friend says that he never heard of a 12-volt compressor, and that fact would make it nearly impossible to get parts for a 12-volt AC unit. Also the drain on the batteries would be greater than any I expect.

So, I think my best bet is to find and install a true 115-volt system and connect it to my Shore Power wiring. I will be able to use it at my dock or connect a portable generator to the Shore Power outlet.

Thanks all!

The new gas gen sets with the catalytic converters are so good I'd go with gas to leave the fuel the same. It's less thing to have to deal with

I'm surprised the AC manufacturers don't have some sort of add on already. I thought about using an inboard flush kit along with some sort of water collection but what a total PITA. And probably not possible for anyone that has a boat on a lift.

They are becoming more popular now because hybrid cars use this technology.

If anyone has any questions regarding our 12 volt system, or the benefit from using a true 12 volt system over a 115 volt a/c system fire away.
Thanks
