Dometic RV Thermostat Basics

In this video, we will look at the Dometic CT Single Zone RV Thermostat that comes in many RVs. It has several features that are fairly easy to understand and a few features that need more explanation. The thermostat is prone to have issues if you don’t understand an important feature of the unit. We will walk through each of the main features to give you a solid understanding of how your thermostat works. We’ll also talk in detail about a problematic design issue with the thermostat.

    It’s wicked junk, I’ve bought 2 new ones and I still have to pull the face plate off to use it. 😢😢😢

    Thanks, you just help me switch my unit from Celsius to Fahrenheit. Somehow, it must have gotten bumped this morning and switched over to Celsius. After messing around with it, checking my install manual, I could not figure out how to change it back to Fahrenheit. What would we do without KZread and guys like you making all these helpful videos? 😆

    I just purchased my rv with this setup. My AC set on low will occasionally just shut off in the middle of the night. Sometimes it’s just for a couple seconds, then turn back on, ramp up the fan speed to high, then back to low, and continue running. Or, the ac will just shut off completely. Any ideas. The rv is brand new and used only two nights. I am certain that the setting is NOT on auto. Thank you!

    Hi John: I have a Dometic. When I set the fan to Auto with AC, it goes off and on, off and on in quick succession. GRRRRRR! Why does it do this?

    They put my thermostat in the worst place. That way you can brush up against it, leaving the bedroom, and change your settings 😂

    Hey man, I have this same thermostat and when I have it set to auto it doesn’t cycle sometimes and let’s it get too hot in the cabin until I do a reset on the thermostat. Any idea what the issue could be?

    I had the problem with the touch sensitivity of the thermostat from when I first got my new Rpod. The RV tech showed me how to fix it by pulling out the foam blocks slightly to decompress them with a tweezer being careful not to tear them. Once he did that I've been careful not to push the buttons and haven't had a problem since.

    Thanks John, Wish I'd seen this prior to our first R-Pod camping trip last weekend. We finally figured most of it out but it was frustrating and your video really answered all the questions about the thermostat operation.. Thanks again.. I think our camper is identical to yours.. Dan
