Buying a new a/c for my RV

Buying a new a/c for my RV

Nick June 1, 2023

I never considered owning an RV until the last couple of years.

As a child I always loved the idea of road tripping in small cars & then stopping to either camp in a tent or stay in a hotel room.

But when you get older you lose the desire to do any of these things & the thought of having an RV becomes really tempting. My Grandfatherrents had an RV when I was a little kid. They used to take long road trips across the country so that they could go see their family in British Columbia north of the Canadian border. Back then it was one of those outdated college RVs that wasn’t certainally nice on the inside like the ones that you find today. They had an outdated window a/c that provided the cool air for the interior. The RVs that you find these mornings have a myriad of peculiar cooling systems inside, then you can even get a ductless mini split for an RV. My RV needs a new a/c & I’m considering a ductless mini split this time around. They are a little bit more fancy right now however at least they’re effective at keeping the interior cool while in the hottest Summer weather. I could not imagine just putting a cheap window a/c inside of my RV & calling it a afternoon. I would absolutely need something more big than a basic window a/c for my RV. Sometimes people use portable a/cs in RVs however they’re seriously inefficient with electricity usage. You can buy two-hose portable a/cs that are marginally better, however I’d rather invest in a better cooling system right out the gate.
