The amount of incorrect information on this forum is incredible.
I could not agree more.
The leaving air temperature on the a/c unit should be 18 to 20 degF cooler than the entering air temperature...NOTHING to do with the outside ambient.
In 90 degF plus temps, I doubt if a 13.5KBTUH unit will keep a 29' plus RV cool in full sunlight. A 15KBTUH unit will help.
How old is the RV and are the filters clean? Is the evaporator coil clean? Is the return air side properly sealed from the outlet air side?
Take you temperature reading with a thermometer and not infrared temperature gun. The infrared will not read air temperature. It will read the temperature of the material near the air.
