Truma Air Con

Choose the Right Truma Air Conditioner

Roof-Mounted Air Conditioning – Truma Aventa Range

The Truma Aventa series (you may see it mistakenly referred to as “Avenrura”) is a roof-mounted air conditioning system designed to sit discreetly on top of your vehicle.

Key Features:

• Installed on the roof (like a skylight or vent unit)
• Powerful, direct cooling for larger spaces
• Even air distribution throughout the vehicle
• Saves internal storage space
• Modern, aerodynamic design reduces drag

Best For:

• Motorhomes and caravans with limited under-seat or locker space
• Users wanting maximum cooling performance
• Vehicles that can support roof load installation

 

Things to Consider:

• Requires roof cut-out and structural suitability
• Occupies skylight/roof vent space
• Slightly higher external profile

 

Under-Bench (Storage Box) Air Conditioning – Truma Saphir Range

The Truma Saphir is a compact storage box air conditioning system installed inside your vehicle, typically under a seat or in a bench storage compartment.

Key Features:

• Installed inside the vehicle (hidden unit)
• Extremely quiet operation in living area
• Keeps roof completely free
• Flexible ducting for air distribution
• Ideal for discreet installations

Best For:

• Campervans and motorhomes with limited roof capacity
• Users prioritising low noise inside the living space
• Installations where roof modifications are not possible or desired

Things to Consider:

• Takes up internal storage space
• Installation requires duct routing
• Cooling is indirect (via air outlets rather than overhead flow)

Which Truma Air Conditioner Should You Choose?

Choose Truma Aventa if you want maximum cooling power and simple airflow directly from above.

Choose Truma Saphir if you prefer a hidden system that preserves your roof space and runs very quietly.

Both systems are engineered for efficient, reliable comfort on the road, so the best choice comes down to your vehicle layout and personal preference.
