How do you install an air conditioner in an RV?
Luckily, it’s pretty simple to install RV air conditioner units, and can be done with basic hand tools. Begin by turning off the air conditioner and unplugging your RV from all power sources.
Why is my air conditioner leaking on the roof of my RV?
When mounting an air conditioning unit onto the roof of an RV, a rubber gasket and mounting bolts are required to lock it into place. One or both of these parts can shift or become damaged, causing leaks over time. The rubber gasket is clamped between the top of your RV and the air conditioning unit.
What should I look for in an RV air conditioner?
There are several factors to consider in order to ensure you get the very best unit for your rig and camping style. In our opinion, power is the most important thing to look at when shopping for RV air conditioners. The power of an RV A/C is measured in BTUs, and most units are going to offer 13,500 BTUs of output.
How often should you check your RV AC unit?
You should do this at least one a month while the air conditioner is in use, and at the beginning and end of each camping season. While the filter is out, you should be able to see up into the unit. Shine a flashlight up there and check for any dirt or dust buildup.
