Keeping cool

During the height of summer, the heat in the cabin can become almost unbearable. It can be controlled, however, with air conditioning. There are systems suited to almost any craft, and while the basic principles remain the same the systems can be very different – so it is important to ensure you get the air conditioning suited to your boat.

The marine air conditioners Boatcare supplies come in a protective casing designed to both protect the components of the system and to provide a very silent air flow. The panels are easily removable for repairs or general maintenance, and for systems intended for small spaces, or where even the least noise is a problem we can supply split unit systems with the compressor placed in any convenient space far from the living areas, usually in the stern, away from the blowers in the cabins.

For maximum efficiency, the separate compressor comes with a double tube condenser through which cooling seawater is circulated by a sea water pump. This compressor can drive more than two evaporator plates, thus cooling a number of different spaces on board. The systems are then regulated via a digital control panel or an RF remote control.

Boatcare can supply air conditioning systems in a variety of sizes, starting from 7,000 BTU all the way to 42,000 BTU. Call us for a quotation, of just for advice on the sort of system that would suit your boat. We are ready to provide a tailor made solution that matches your needs.
