Jerry,
That's for the outside unit only.
Having bought two of these Duo Therm units I have experience with them and here it is:
1) I can't remember where I bought it but when it arrived it had been dropped, the lower metal frame had been bent and "stuff" was
mounted cattywhompus. With the help of John Sharpe we removed all the components as an assembly without bending or breaking any of
the tubes from the lower metal frame. We then hammered it back into shape as best we could. This unit has a single fan and the motor
shaft was bent which caused the squirrel cage to rub on the housing. I took it to a Dometic dealer and got it replaced FOC.
2) These units are made in China and the quality control is NOT up to snuff, they cool just fine but the knobs which are mounted to
the outside unit do not line up with the holes for them in the inside unit. I had to do a bit of work to get them to align.
3) They cool very well but are a bit noisy on the highest setting.
4) They are OK.
Regards,
Rob M.

Duo therm brisk air 13500 for just under $400 at adventureRV.net. I have no experience with this unit so do your own research.
