Product Description
EASY TO INSTALL! You can even have a install phone calls to walk you through the install process in real time!
Now you can run your RV air conditioner(s) with minimal start-up power, even 2 units on a 30 amp pedestal! SoftStart RV is designed to connect directly to the compressor motor and reduce the power surge that occurs on startup. SoftStartRV™ gradually increases this power until the compressor is running, creating a very smooth start that reduces the peak current by 50 to 70% or more. An RV rooftop 16000 BTU, 120-volt compressor can now start with under 20 amps of current.
With SoftStart RV you can:
- Run two air conditioners on a 30 amp hookup
- Run one air conditioner using only a small portable generator
- Run one air conditioner on a 20 amp household hookup
- Run one or two air conditioners using your onboard inverter system
SoftStartRV is specially designed, engineered and tested for all RVs: Motorhomes, Fifth wheels, campers, travel trailers, toy haulers, truck campers, vans, and tiny trailers.
Other benefits include:
- No more “thumps” and “trailer shaking” in the quiet of the night as the compressor kicks in.
- Reduces and eliminates that clunking compressor start-up noise… Everyone sleeps cool, quiet and restful.
- Reduces startup power demand by an amazing 70%. It’s that good!
- Small at just 6”x3”x3” and weighs just under 2 pounds.
