Dometic Penguin II 15000 BTU Low Profile RV Air Conditioner with Heat Pump – 651816HXX1C0-01

Stay comfortable year-round with the Dometic Penguin II 15,000 BTU RV rooftop air conditioner, designed for both cooling and heating in ducted or non-ducted systems. This high-capacity unit fits standard 14" x 14" vent openings and features a low-profile, aerodynamic design that reduces drag and enhances fuel efficiency — ideal for RVs, trailers, and motorhomes.

Equipped with a built-in Comfort Control Center II (CCCII) multi-zone electronic board, the Penguin II supports seamless integration with multi-zone climate systems. Although the CCCII wall thermostat and ceiling assembly are sold separately, this unit is ready for direct installation and operation.

Constructed with a robust, rib-reinforced base pan and a sleek, contemporary shroud, it’s engineered to withstand harsh road conditions while offering long-lasting durability. The powerful fan and high-performance motor ensure reliable airflow, delivering up to 265 CFM using eco-friendly R410A refrigerant for more efficient cooling.

Manufacturer model and installation compatibility

Exact model: Dometic Penguin II 651816HXX1C0-01, Polar White rooftop heat pump, high-capacity nominal 15,000 BTU cooling. Dometic identifies the 651816 high-capacity heat-pump family with integrated CCC 2 multi-zone electronics; it is not the same control system as the 651916 single-zone configuration. A compatible thermostat, interior return-air grille or air-distribution box and the proper wiring arrangement are required; verify the full rooftop model and the currently fitted control hardware before ordering.

Roof and electrical requirements: The Dometic North American installation instructions specify a 14-1/4" x 14-1/4" roof opening (plus or minus 1/8"), 120V AC, 60Hz single-phase power, and 20A time-delay circuit protection for the referenced family. The quoted compressor amperage is configuration-dependent; use the appliance's full nameplate rating and current installation instructions, not a fixed 12.5A claim. Confirm roof support, duct layout, ADB, ceiling thickness, wire routing and thermostat compatibility before installation.
