A/C Replacement
Hello all, I am looking into the idea of changing out my 13K A/C with a 15K. If I do that, would I need to replace the ceiling assembly or will the current one work/fit with the new A/C unit? Tha...

Thank you all.
The current a/c cannot keep up when temps go North of 80?.
Two a/c units would not work as it is not at 50amp sysyem.
I have read that a 15k a/c can handle temps of 100? while keeping the trailer around 75?
If 80 is the upper limit with 13.5, the 10% increase in output might keep you good to 82.
You will likely better off managing your system better:
- Cool it way down in the morning and keep it running. If you let it get hot inside, it's harder for the unit to bring it back down.
- Consider closing off the vents to the bedroom during the day so all the cold air is pumped into a smaller area.
- Obviously, keep the outside door closed as much as possible.
- Try to get a shady site.
If you do go thru with it, let us know how it works out but if you are going to pay that much, the extra cost of wiring in a 2nd unit and being sure it will keep it cooler, just makes a lot more sense to me.
I don't think you could manage this system any better than I.
Even running the a/c through the night has no long lasting affects once the temps are 80 and above.
Everything looks better on paper... but usually does not reflect the real world results.
