Carrier AirV Air Conditioner Specs?

Question

Bought a used (2009) R-Vision Trail-Sport (23') trailer with a Carrier Air V unit and I can't find any info on this air conditioner. I'm wanting to pick up a generator but want to know my needs first. Here's what I know:

The part number is one of these two (it's listed differently on the manual vs the registration card): 71RC6A54340 or 71LC6A5431A

It's 115V AC, 60Hz, 1 Phase

That's all I know for sure. Can anyone help identify this unit and/or provide additional info like BTU rating and what not. Thanks!

More than likely a 13.5K AC for that size rig, 3K watts would be required for reliable operation at most elevations.

Carrier got out of the RV business about 10 years ago.  Parts are really hard to find.

I don't have much info, but have the same ac unit and it's been working great since 2005!

I'm sorry but, I can't help you directly. I have a 1993 TT with a Emerson roof mount AC. They don't make them anymore either ! But, It works well so that I use it often. I was able to find out that some AC parts are interchangeable and if you ever need any I hope that yours are too.

If it works, use it. Worry about it when it breaks.

Have a nice Day.

For the sizes needed for a rig your size, 13,500 or 15,000 btu, which in either case will need 3000 to 3200 watts on a genny.
Now for the fun part, find the one you want.
Inverter units will run basically from a
Predator from Harbor Freight, 3500 watts $700
Champion w or w/o remote start 3000-3200 $750 - $900
Honda and Yam 2800 - 3500 $1800-$2000
