2008 330DA A/C Question....please help

[pfineberg]

My friend has a 2008 330 and doesn't know where his A/C unit is located. He believes its in the engine compartment. Is that true..? I haven't been able to get on his boat to look or find a schematic to look myself. His air filter is in the overhead of the aft sette area on the port side, and his condensate discharge is under the deck in front of the stairs. But where is the A/C unit itself? I have a 340DA and mine is under the forward berth.

If you could send me an e-mail reply and post here also, it would be appreciated. Paul Fineberg (paul_g_fineberg@raytheon.com)

Here's the 2008 330 owners manual:

Jack,

thanks...I already downloaded that from the SeaRay site, and that is the "Specific Information Manual" and does not show the location of the A/C compressor unit itself. All it shows is the sea water pickup seacock in the engine compartment and the seawater pump in the engine compartment, but not the compressor unit. I'm trying to help him long distance, without being on the boat.

It is in the mid cabin to left of the TV.

Look for the intake grille.

Look for the intake grille.

Or, maybe it's that loud, vibrating, humming sound...

AM321,

Thanks for the real answer, I'm just trying to help someone here who is new to boating, and I'm not there to assist in person.

To all others: Very funny.....please grow up...

I was not having fun at your expense. I regret if you were offended. I'm glad you found the answer you were looking for.

Happy Boating :thumbsup:

No offense taken, thanks for the note.....I passed the information on to my shipmate, and he greatly appreciated the input.

 

[AM321]

No problem.. To be more clear. When I mean left of TV it is on the Port side, under the stairs. He will find it with that info.

No I'm being serious....look for the intake grate.It will be a large white grill on a lower floorwall and the AC unit WILL be right behind it.No two ways about it.
