C. Roof Preparation
1. Opening Requirments - Before preparing the ceiling
opening, the type of system options must be de-
cided upon. If a remote sensor is to be used,
provision must be made for it. If the load shed option
is to be used, wires must be run from the load shed
control to the Dometic A/C. If a furnace is to be
connected, wires must be run from the furnace to the
Dometic A/C. Read all of the following instructions
before beginning the installation.
If a roof vent opening will not be used a 14-1/4" x 14-
1/4" (±1/8") opening must be cut through the roof and
ceiling of the RV. This opening must be located
between the roof reinforcing members.
There may be electrical wiring between the
roof and the ceiling. Disconnect 115 volt AC
power cord and the positive (+) 12 volt DC ter-
minal at the supply battery. Failure to follow
this instruction may create a shock hazard
causing death or severe personal injury.
The 14-1/4" x 14-1/4" (±1/8") opening is part of the
return air system of the Air Conditioner and must be
finished in accordance with NFPA Standard 501C
Section 2.7.2.
