2017 bighorn 3575el adding third AC

bighorn2017 · Jun 12, 2018

I am looking to add a third ac unit to my 3575. I am going to put it where my vent fan is over my kitchen. It will not be tied into the ducts just a stand alone unit for when i am in hot areas. My question is does anyone know if there is enough framework there to support the ac unit. Thanks

Frame work is one item and 120 volt power is another. Never heard of this mod.

Power would be easy to run from the vent above the cabinet, maybe 3 ft to fish down the wall to the breaker panel. Mine is the older model so it may not be as easy with the newer roof design.

Being it’s not an option or the BH there will be no 110 volt available up there. Not going to be an easy mod getting power up the wall and across .

I have the power figured out how i am goimg to run it. Whatbi am worried about is that my roof is not framed around the vent can anyone tell me with any certainty that it is framed. Thnks

You can pull the bottom part of the vent off fairly easy. I’m going to do the same on my 3970. I’ll move the fantastic fan to the bathroom. I pulled the lower section off to verify framing and it’s there. Think I’m gonna tie into the existing ductwork as it’s right there. Keep us posted on your progress👍
