We have a 38ft 5th wheel. All windows have awnings, plus patio awning. Inside all windows have mini-blinds.
We have a ducted Duo Therm 15K BTU A/C.
To keep the inside cool we:
Deploy all Awnings
Turn the mini-blinds so the sun doesn't come in
Set the A/C at 56 degrees with fan on low
Turn on the ceiling fan
Tell our guests/kids they either stay in or out to limit the door openings
A/C stays on and we put on coats if we get chilled
Use protable fans to direct cool air into warm areas
If outside temp is above 80 degrees the A/C stays on 24/7
Our inside stays very comfortable into 100 plus outside temps.
