CTM Marine CT-6S 6000 BTU Soft Start Boat A/C
CTM Marine CT-6S packages 6,000 BTU boat air conditioning with soft-start operation for smoother startup in compact vessel installations.
- 6,000 BTU capacity suits compact cabins.
- Soft start reduces startup current.
- Boat A/C supports onboard cooling.
- CT-6S identifies the product configuration.
- Compact format fits smaller installations.
Boats using small generators, inverter-backed power, or lithium battery banks can benefit from reduced compressor startup demand in a compact cabin system. The CTM Marine CT-6S 115V provides 6,000 BTU/h of cooling and 6,000 BTU/h of reverse-cycle heating. Its integrated soft-start microcontroller is intended for compact staterooms, cuddy sleeper cabins, and small boats from 16 to 26 feet.
Who This Unit Is Not Ideal For
This model is not intended for 230V-only boats, large cabins, or applications requiring more than 6,000 BTU/h. Final system planning should also verify that the inverter, generator, battery bank, and wiring are appropriate for the complete onboard load.
Warranty and Product Summary
The supplied data does not specify a factory warranty. Manufactured by CTM Marine in the USA, the CT-6S combines 115V cooling and heating with integrated soft-start technology for compatible small-boat installations.
