are you parked in the same spot as before ?
try pulling in the slides in the morning, and keep them in for One day and see if the inside temp is cooler
3 slides create a lot more area to cool
3 slides extended create a lot more surface area exposed to the hot air and sun
3 walls plus roof and floor for each slide
9 more surfaces exposed to the sun (2 ends and a roof) for each slide
does not count the floors and main exterior wall of each slide
(those are exposed to the hot air, but not the sun) the long wall would have sun, retracted or extended, so i;m only counting the NEW surfaces,
but add those surfaces and the square footage, and your asking a LOT from those heat (2) lonely heat pumps
I think you are going to NEED {3} refrigeration type A/C units when it gets really hot
