Re: Considering a replacement of my rotary Aire

I bought the Dometic 16k BTU from West Marine and also the extended warranty. Install took me about 6 hours but I think I could get it done in 3 hours if I had to do it again. Need to remove all of the stored items in the locker, remove the shelves, remove the duct work connection, remove the old wi...

Re: CO Detectors

I purchased a soft start for mine, Easystart 364 from microair.net Call them first and let them know what model a/c and generator you're using. They're very helpful on the phone, also ask if they have a promo code... I think they saved me $10 or $20 They will also walk you thru the install, Worked f...

Re: Considering a replacement of my rotary Aire

I didn't want to try to solve the electrical problem so I replaced my rotary aire (westerbeke) with an entire new system. The compressor runs great and it gets very cold, and I saved all the parts. If someone is in need of a compressor or anything from the original Rotary Aire system then let me kno...

Re: boom to mast connection

When I purchased my 350 a year ago, the surveyor noticed the same thing on mine. Glad he caught it because it's easy to miss and would have resulted in big trouble while out on a sail.

Re: Considering a replacement of my rotary Aire

I'm still hoping to find a used interior control panel for the Westerbeke rotary aire

How did you make out with the new system?

Re: Considering a replacement of my rotary Aire

I was able to keep the system working throughout the summer. The odd behavior I still have is when I try to adjust the temp. setting up or down, the system often will do other functions like go into dehumidifier mode. When I leave everything alone, it works fine. If anyone replaces their system (for...

Considering a replacement of my rotary Aire

The current rotary aire by Westerbeke is acting up with a ghost in the machine. It will work fine then decide to change functions on it's own and buttons are no longer working until they start working again after 10 minutes or so for some unknown reason. It seems no one has parts for these things in...

Re: Beer no longer cold!

I had this problem too, it turned out to be corrosion on the wire at the connection to the compressor. You can replace the wire or if possible cut it back and strip the wire. Mine was last year and has not had a problem since. Good luck.
