2nd A/C without existing provisions

I have read many posts about adding a 2nd a/c in rigs with rough-in provisions for it. My trailer has none. Anyone out there who has cut their own roof opening and added a unit? Would love to hear your stories and advice, especially about bracing the roof structure and keeping the ceiling looking nice.

Not looking for any electrical advice, I am well schooled in that department.
  • In the mean time try a free standing unit
    You can modify a opening to draw in
    Fresh air. Run a drain hose to expel the condensation
    Or depend on auto shut off drain pan.
    Not what you ask but they are powerful efficient
    Cool an so user friendly
