    In regards to my other thread on our Dometic Brisk Air II not cooling properly and icing up/raining into the unit, I was able to consult with a friendly AC guy who thinks I have a leak somewhere and have lost gas. He advised that although he might be willing to tackle installing a valve and...

    Leveling an Air Conditioner on Sloped Roof

    I am considering upgrading my a/c and am concerned about efficiency on the sloped roof of my 5er. Where the a/c sits it is sloped about 10 degrees. Most manufacturers say up to 15 degrees is okay. However, I have seen 5 degrees recommended. It makes sense that the more level the better the...

    Success reducing the noise from non-ducted air conditioner.

    I could not stand the noise from the air conditioner in my RP-196 to the point of thinking about replacing with a quieter unit. It came with a Mach 3 from the dealer which dumped the air from the fan to the outside with a direct almost line of sight construction. All the noise from the fan is...
