Webasto A6 BlueCool A-Series Low Profile Air Handler – 6,000 BTU – 230V

Description

Cabins with limited overhead clearance get a purpose-built solution in the Webasto A6 Low Profile Air Handler, delivering the same 6,000 BTU capacity as the standard A6 in a wide, flat chassis designed to fit above a headliner or in a shallow overhead space. This low profile marine air handler prioritizes height clearance over footprint.

The tradeoff is deliberate and useful: at just 8.1 inches tall but 17.2 inches wide, this unit trades floor space for headroom, which matters specifically in installations where a standard compact handler’s height simply won’t clear the available overhead space, such as under a low headliner or in a shallow ceiling cavity.

Key Features of the Webasto A6 Low Profile Air Handler

This flat overhead cabin air handler brings the same cooling performance as the standard A6 in a chassis reshaped specifically for low-clearance installations.

• Innovative Instant Drain Condensate Management System handles condensate automatically
• High-quality stainless steel construction throughout
• Flexible vibration isolation mounts and larger ducts reduce operating noise
• Oversized heat exchanger tested specifically under tropical operating conditions
• Compatible with the Webasto MyTouch color touchscreen control display

Why Choose the Webasto A6 Low Profile

This unit carries Webasto’s standard 2-year warranty. If your installation space has a low overhead clearance that rules out the standard compact A6, this low profile configuration delivers identical cooling performance in a chassis built to fit.

What to Know Before Installing

• A Webasto A-Series Cabin Control Kit is required for installation — this listing is the air handler only
• Measure your overhead clearance carefully — at 17.2″ wide and only 8.10″ tall, this unit needs more horizontal space than the standard compact A6
• This handler requires a matching Webasto chiller (C-Series, V-Series, or VX-Series) as the central cooling source
• Can be extended with an EHM600W electric heat module and flow control valve for independent cabin heating
