Dometic’s solar-powered auxiliary A/C

January 4, 2017

dometic-blizzard-turbo-ac-with-enow-solar-system Dometic’s Blizzard Turbo auxiliary air conditioner for Class 8 sleepers now is available with eNow’s Solar Photovoltaic Panel system. The solar-powered auxiliary A/C harnesses the sun’s power to capture and store energy in the onboard battery system and distribute it to various truck and trailer functions. Using solar power helps increase the life of the truck’s alternator and auxiliary battery system by reducing the alternator load at idle and over-the-road while charging the battery more efficiently at its optimal voltage and extending run time.
