So last weekend, the temperatures ranged upwards of 85F. In Utah, it's dry heat -- so not too bad.
I took off to do some volunteer USFS trail work for the day, was connected to 50amp shore-power and fired-up the AC.
In the morning, it was only 60F, but by the time I left, the AC had kicked in once (I had the thermostat set for around 72F). I figured it would be somewhat cool inside by the time I got back around 5pm.
By 5pm, the outside ambient air temp. was close to 90F, but inside the RV, it was reporting as 100F+. The AC was running, but barely any air was coming out of the roof vents and the temperature of that air was not cold.
To cool down the interior, I had to drop the TH ramp, open every window and open both doors. Took about an hour to get the inside at least as cool as the outside air.
Any suggestions on what to look for before I (AGAIN!) take this rig in for service?
