A couple of more questions:
Sure
Did you consider using the block heater circuit for connecting the unit?
Not really since the block heater appearance in the OnePlace area is the switch for the outlet in the electric bay. You would still need to find a common and ground. Edit: that might work - I think the hot and common/ground are there
If so, why did you choose to run a new circuit to the breaker panel?
I like having the AC on its own dedicated breaker
Did you consider installing some form of breakout so in the event you were at a 30-amp site, you could connect the roof unit to a separate 20-amp plug?
Way too complicated for the benefit gained for me
How did you get power to it on the roof?
From the bed area to under the sink, under the shower, up the OnePlace column. Then I drilled a 2" hole in the ceiling into the AC duct. From the 14" x 14" roof opening I poked a hole in the Styrofoam roof insulation and the hole intersected with the 2" ceiling hole previously mentioned
I'll have the entire process documented on my web site when I get a chance to write it up.
