WOW, This is so disappointing to hear - I really need the headroom for my shed. Thank you for your help.I had a 24’ Phoenix Cruiser with a penguin II with a horizontal compressor (which allows the lower profile), and they failed just about annually (three of them) until I finally replaced it with a conventional AC unit. Also the two year warranty runs from the original coach purchase date, not the purchase date of the replacement so you can have a one-year old AC unit fail and not be covered under the manufacturers two year warranty. The final replacement was a few inches taller but was also trouble free from then on. It also cost less than $500. Just my .02 worth….
Thanks a bunch, the people I talked to said warranty is 2 yrs from purchase and they were just as reliable as the others. Will do more research.Maybe they've improved them since then (2010-2015) but the opinion at the time was that horizontal compressors were much more susceptible to early failure. That would be a good question to research.
I would confirm the warranty issue and get it in writing, because they told me the warranty ran for two years from the purchase date of the original unit. Doesn’t make sense to me either and maybe they changed the policy or maybe the retailer was confused or dishonest. But thats what I was told at the time.Thanks a bunch, the people I talked to said warranty is 2 yrs from purchase and they were just as reliable as the others. Will do more research.
