Roof top airconditioner

Does anyone know if a Airxcel Series 48000 air conditioner can be converted to being controlled with a thermostat? Currently the unit is either on or off. If a thermostat can be installed what are the requirements for the thermostat?

    Sure. Install a Residential Wall T'Stat supplied by a Transformer that matches the Energize Coil of a heavy duty Relay. Wire the Contact side of the Relay into the Power Source of the A/C. Set the Fan Knob to High or Low Cool. Then turn the Temp Knob all the ay to MAX. It'll run when the new 'Stat tells it to and shut down when the 'Stat is satisfied.
