Believe it or not, keeping warm and cool with the installed appliances in any U.S. conditions is one reason we purchased a small motorhome for just the two of us. Probably just about zero shoppers think of this when buying a new RV. We wanted a completely self-contained rig not limited (much) by outside heat or cold. Winnie supplied built-in block-off curtains for the back bedroom area, cabover bed area, and cab area. Also included were 12V tank heaters and an 18 gallon propane tank for cold weather camping without hookups. The furnace and air conditioning systems are ducted.
By blocking off areas, our 13.5K ducted A/C has so far been able to keep us cool. I just tested it again in the back yard recently ... no problem bringing the interior down to at least to 76 degrees before I stopped the test on a 95+ degree day. We once cooled the interior quickly for lunch by running both the coach and cab A/C in August in the scorching Texas panhandle. The coach A/C maintained it fine from there during the middle of the day.
Of course high humidity can kindof be a different ball game. IMHO, a dehumidifier MUST be part of an RV's equipment mix in the Southern U.S. during the summer, regardless of the size of the air conditioner.
