Would have been a 5 star...but
Just finished up replacing my 16 year old Dometic 13.5K BTU Penguin HP (blower motor failed, no long available). The new Penguin II High output heat pump is a significant redesign for the better. Installation on my Airstream (using Airstream base pan) was uneventful. Unit is quiet other than white noise from its fan, especially on Hi fan speed. The compressor is whisper quiet compared to the older Penguin. The one ding I would give on this unit is that the 120V power connection is a 3P molex hermaphroditic connector which would be great...IF Dometic had sent along the mating side of the connector. The Dometic install instructions give concise, explicit instructions on how to connect the unsupplied connector to the incoming 120V service, but again, NO connector included with unit. I looked around online for the connector and never did find a mate, so I cut off the supplied connector and installed a metal connection box and wired the unit directly to the 120V incoming. I would have SO preferred to use the molex 3P connector had I been able to find one. I hope this unit gives me the same excellent life as its predecessor.
