Common questions
Which ceiling layout is Ultra designed for?
Ultra is purpose-built for a non-ducted ceiling assembly; choose a duct-compatible InstaCool model for an existing duct system.
When is the heat pump most useful?
It adds efficient warmth in mild weather; use a properly sized furnace in freezing conditions.
Can it run from an inverter?
Yes, when the complete inverter, battery bank, wiring and charging system can support compressor startup and continuous load.
How quiet is it at night?
Low mode is rated below 43 dB. Actual cabin sound depends on installation, fan mode and RV construction.
Build a complete RV comfort setup with climate equipment matched to each roof opening and duct layout.
Add stable on-demand hot water with a built-in mixing tank and matching RV door package.

Quiet comfort for every season
InstaCool Ultra combines 16,000 BTU cooling, 12,500 BTU heat-pump heating, 418 CFM airflow and low-mode sound below 43 dB. It is built for non-ducted RV owners who value quiet nights as much as daytime cooling.

Cool fast without dominating the cabin
The compressor, separate airflow motors and control options are designed around the parts of rooftop climate control you feel every day.

Recover the cabin after a hot drive
The 16K platform adds useful cooling capacity when the RV roof and interior have absorbed hours of summer heat.

Move conditioned air beyond the ceiling
Three impellers help deliver cooled or heated air into the occupied cabin instead of concentrating it around the ADB.

Protect sleep with a quieter low mode
Low mode is designed for overnight and maintenance cooling, with installed sound shaped by the RV and mounting.

Control comfort from four interfaces
Change temperature, mode and timing without relying on a single control point.
Choose Ultra for quiet non-ducted comfort
Ultra is the best fit for owners who want cooling, useful heat-pump warmth and a lower overnight sound target.
The included ceiling system delivers air directly from the ADB rather than through existing ducts.
The heat pump adds warmth in mild cold, while a furnace remains the right tool for freezing weather.
Pro adds maximum cooling-only output; Pro Max adds 18K cooling, 16K heat and ducted compatibility.
Standard non-ducted rooftop compatibility
A 14.25 × 14.25-inch opening, compatible roof thickness and non-ducted ceiling assembly support installation.

Designed for a standard non-ducted rooftop opening.
The 14.25-inch cutout, 1.2–5-inch roof range and included non-ducted ceiling assembly cover the key replacement dimensions.
