air conditioner

Hello, we are camping for our second trip in our new camper. For anyone who has this unit is the air conditioner loud? I've noticed that ours is very loud. It wakes me up when it kicks on. When sitting outside I am surprised at how loud it is. It does cool very well. Just curious if other's...

Hello everyone, We are currently on our second outing with our 2015 26BH and it was finally warm enough to do a test run on the AC. I fired it up with the fan on high and was less than impressed. It was 74 in the camper and putting a thermometer in the blowing air it was reading 68. I couldn't...

I have a 2004 FR Rockwood 8285SS. The A/C worked fine last year. I turned it on for first time this year, and the a/c seems to come on, but no fan. I put it on fan only and you can here a click, but fan does not come on? Any ideas? I have the Dometic single zone thermostat - less than one year old.

First time out this year all working ok until a short power failure. I have a surge supperssor Progressive Industries so do not think surge necessairly caused problem. Using the trouble shooting guide the best I can tell it is either the fan motor has an open winding but does not appear to be...

Hi, We are looking for a new Travel Trailer in the 17 to 19 foot range. We have seen 5000, 8000, and 13.5 btu a/c units. How do we determine which size will work best?? We plan on being in Florida during Jan., Feb., and Mar. Thanks, Joe

I have a 2014 Forest River DS3010 (Class C). The fridge is a stainless steel double door model with typical fridge/ freezer combo. As an electrician, I realize that both draw high amps when each compressor is on. My question is: Other than living with the freezer using gas only or not...

Hello Newbie to the boards here. I had a question. I am going to install a 13.5k 2nd air in the bedroom of my 30 foot TT, I have done my research but I have a question. I was told to use 12/2 to run the through to the circuit breaker box but I also read to run 10/3 on another site. The person...

Hi all we just purchased a 2014 sabre 33ckts and would like to know if anyone knows if the ac is has a built in time delay from factory. Thanks and happy camping!!!

I have one AC unit on the back roof of my 33 RETS-6. It is cooling but does not cool the inside down much. In 100% sun We are lucky if to see 80 inside when it 80 outside. It's dehumidifying / dripping some water. Is this the norm considering all the solar heating taking place. Curious what what...

We have a 2006 Forrest River, Cedar Creek 5th wheel. This is our first time using it and trying to check things out. We CAN NOT find the selection switch panel for the AC.we have searched everywhere. Manual say it's at the base if he bed. We have been over this entire camper, it's not here! Does...

Is the 2015 FR3 air conditioner a heat pump also?

Found this on Camping with Family on Facebook. Home Made Air Conditoner DIY - CampingWithFamily.com

I am wondering if anyone has added a second air conditioner to their bedroom in their FR3 30DS. My experience traveling out west in 95+ degree heat last summer was my single 13,500 BTU unit air conditioner could not keep our RV at a comfortable 78 degrees in the heat of the day even with all...

Let me start that my now menopausal wife likes a cold camper! I have noted that some have had issues with their AC units not cooling sufficiently. I'm looking for input from FR3 owners: when summer camping with outside temps in the 90's, does the unit keep the inside relatively cool? Thanks.

Is there any down side to running the generator while operating down the road so you can run the coach air conditioner(s) for cooling ? Thanks

We did our walk through this morning. At the end, we noticed that quite a bit of water was coming out of a drain under the bottom of the unit......water from the air conditioning we're assuming. Is this normal? If so, how do you direct the water away from you so that it doesn't soak...

Anyone else having issues with the AC unit not being able to keep the unit cool once temps are above 90 outside? We've had the AC breaker trip multiple times and it's unable to keep the RV cooler than 10-15 degrees cooler than the outside temp, at best. There have been times when it was 97...

I would like to remove my 13.5k bedroom air conditioner in order to reduce overall height of my 2012 Cedar Creek 34 RLSA. I almost never use it and I would rather have better height clearance. If I remove it, how will it impact my electronic Dometic thermostat?? Can anyone offer any tips on...

The air conditioner in my Rockwood 2306 was loud. We thought that it was because we had a larger unit put in. It is a Coleman Mach. We just cranked up the TV sound when the air came on. After one season of this I decided to do what I can to sound proof it. I have a background in sound...

Hello All, I'm a brand new owner of a Rockwood 128S HS camper. I've already added bug screens to the refrigerator and hot water area. I'd like to possibly add a bug screen to the venting for the Cool Cat/Heat Pump air conditioner but not sure how to approach this. I thought I saw a video...

I am close to purchasing an rood at a local dealer but I noticed they all have the slide (old style) thermostats and air conditioners with dials directly on the unit (like a window air conditioner). Every other r-pod i see online or on the company website has the dometic digital thermostat...

Camping last week when the monsoon hit. Heavy rain all day and real stuffy in the camper so kept the air on. Late in the day it started dripping water. Turned it off and got a steady stream for about 10 seconds then it stopped. Rain continued to be very heavy for next few hours but no leaks...

We have a dometic Duo-Therm air condition 630516.331 in our 2009 Lexington RV but we do not have a cover. Do we need to cover the ac component on the top of the motorhome during the winter months. :confused:

Has anybody had any trouble with the duct work in the overhead air conditioning
