RV A/C in Arizona summer heat?
We may be moving to Wickenburg, AZ this summer. It is a bit cooler than Phoenix but still scorching for a Colorado boy. At some point us and the cats and dogs will have to try to survive for a few day...

3 A/C Units should have no problem maintaining comfortable temps inside the RV
Remember...RV A/C Units circulate/cool INSIDE air ONLY
18*F-20*F differential between RETURN air and DISCHARGE air temps is what the A/C Unit should be capable of achieving
Outside ambient air temps affect cooling by providing a 'heat load'....windows/roof vents/no shade etc .
Try to minimize the heat load.....Awnings/window coverings, parking where afternoon sun is shaded etc
So start the A/C Units early and let them run.
We maintained 78*F in 110*F outside temps with ONE 15K A/C Unit in a 34' 5th wheel
You have THREE!!
