So about 3 weeks ago I bought a Dutchman Aspen Trail 1800rb. The A/C is only 8,000 btu window unit.
So here is Texas with the temps running about 95 to 98 this weekend, during the day the A/C will only cool the trailer to 80 degrees until the sun goes down. Cooled it to 65 by in the morning then back up to 80 by noonish. This is also with the bathroom door closed to cut down the area to keep cool. Wish I could return the trailer, but probably too late now that i bought it. So my question is has anyone ever change out theirs 8,000 btu with a 12000 btu and put it where the current A/c is located. What are the other options for my delema?
So I contacted Dutchman rv mfg. They basically told me that if the a/c unit is operating at normal performance, then basically I am stuck with it. They also basically told me that if i added any "aftermarket" items to my rv it could void my warranty.
