Flagship FM9H 9000 BTU 115V Marine Air Conditioner

Description

Compact yacht cabins often need both cooling and heating without requiring a large salon system. The Flagship FM9H provides 9,000 BTU/h of cooling and 5,115 BTU/h of heating through a 115V self-contained direct-expansion marine AC system. Its 2.6 kW cooling capacity, electric heat-strip assembly, and supplied application guidance make it suitable for medium forward V-berths, standalone aft cabins, small trawler salons, and enclosed express cockpits on 24 to 34-foot boats.

Confirm the vessel’s 115V supply, 20 A breaker, minimum 200 GPH seawater loop, four-inch air collar, RJ12 controller connection, condensate route, and service clearance before installation. The non-magnetic marine stainless steel chassis pan should also be considered when selecting the mounting location.
