🔥 Installing a 12V Van A/C | Outequip Pro Full DIY Install replacing MaxxAir Fan

We finally did it — we installed the Outequip Pro 12V Air Conditioner in our van, and it’s a game changer! In this video, we walk you through the entire process step-by-step: from lifting the unit onto the roof to running the electrical and powering it on. Spoiler alert: it only took two days… and it would’ve been one if we hadn’t had to move our rooftop deck and solar panels (that video’s coming soon!). Thinking about adding A/C to your van?
