DC Air Conditioning Systems in Long Beach | Voltara Systems

Running air conditioning without a generator used to be a compromise. It isn't anymore.

DC split air conditioning systems run entirely off your battery bank — charged by solar, shore power, or your alternator. No generator noise. No fuel. No exhaust. Just cool air, silently, whenever you need it. Voltara Systems designs and installs DC split AC systems for vans, RVs, boats, and specialty vehicles in Long Beach, CA.

How DC Split AC Works

A DC split system runs on 12V or 24V power drawn directly from your battery bank, bypassing the need for an inverter to convert to 120V AC. That efficiency matters — it draws less energy for the same cooling output compared to running a standard AC unit through an inverter. Paired with a properly sized solar array and battery bank, it's a complete off-grid cooling solution.

We size the system to your space, your usage pattern, and your existing or planned power setup. The result is a system that keeps up with Southern California heat without ever touching a generator.

Runs Off Battery Bank

12V or 24V DC — no inverter, no generator, no fuel. Just direct battery power.

More Efficient Than Standard AC

Native DC operation skips the conversion loss of inverter-powered AC units. Same cooling, less draw.

Sized to Your Space

We calculate your cooling load based on vehicle size, insulation, and usage before recommending a unit.

DC Air Conditioning FAQs

Yes — if it's properly sized. A system that's too small for the space will struggle. We calculate your cooling load based on your vehicle size, insulation, and how you use it before recommending a unit. Southern California heat is in our backyard — we know what these systems need to handle.
Not necessarily — it can run from shore power or a large battery bank alone. But solar is the most practical long-term charging source for off-grid use. We can design the full solar + battery + AC system or integrate AC into an existing setup.
Standard rooftop AC units require 120V AC power — which means running a generator or a large inverter. DC split systems run natively off your battery bank, which is more efficient and far quieter. See how power systems work together for the full picture.
