An air-conditioned cabin can be a welcome relief on hot, humid nights. The BlueCool S-Series of self-contained air conditioning units from Webasto Thermo & Comfort North America provide energy-efficient climate control in a quiet, compact package.


Designed for boats with up to three cabins, the self-contained, stand-alone BlueCool S-Series includes seven sizes of compact air conditioners with integrated reverse-cycle heating. Models range from 8,000 to 27,000 BTU/h to fit the boat owner's needs. Each offers plug-and-play installation utilizing a new controller board with USB interface, and is provided with all electronics, blower and controls. It can be CAN-Bus compatible by using the Webasto CAN-Bus module. A soft-start unit is available optionally.


Engineered to deliver continuous operation even in tropical conditions, the BlueCool S-Series uses highly efficient compressors and a multi-point injection evaporator. It delivers up to 15% greater efficiency in a quiet, robust design that is up to 20% smaller than competing units. Mounted on extra-deep, thermally insulated, stainless steel trays, each model in the series is epoxy-painted for durable corrosion protection.


Standard with all BlueCool S-Series A/C units is the industry-leading BlueCool MyTouch control unit. The customizable color touch screen display provides intuitive navigation using universal icons and a well thought-out, 10 language menu. It fits a wide range of cover plates.
