Since they use a Basement system and the drawback on Alfa and one of the reasons they went under is the basement AC was NOT designed and installed correctly by Alfa. There is NO return air from the front half of the motorhome and because of that you cannot cool the interior below 80 degrees in hot weather. Adding a roof top AC will require you run 120 12/3 romex from the breaker panel up to the area where you will install the roof top AC. Unless you can get the motorhome pennies on the dollar, I would not advise buying it. Doug
I do not think that the ALFA motor home company went out of business because of an AC they went out of business because they were not making any money for the investors.
The AC does recirculated air from the front as most of the air is directed there and then through the filter in the rear.
