Install a RV Roof Top A/C Unit on a Forest River Pop Up Camper Tent Trailer

A comprehensive video overview of the installation of a Dometic 13, 500 BTU Brisk Air II RV rooftop air conditioning unit on my Forest River Rockwood 2280 pop up camper tent trailer.

This install video is essentially identical for all pop up campers made by Forest River over the past 15 years that have the built in factory roof bracing to support the heavy a/c unit.

I am sure this install video is also applicable to other brands of pop ups and even for travel trailers too. Check your manufacturer specs before beginning.

I personally chose to install a Dometic Brisk Air II but if you want to install a Coleman or an Advent unit the procedure is the same.

The powering requirements for the install require a minimum #12 AWG wire and 20 amp breaker. Most pop ups should have a sufficiently sized shore power cable to accommodate the electrical load of the a/c and converter. Most campers should have the 20 amp breaker pre-installed from the factory.
