Coleman Trueair basement HVAC

We are looking at buying a 2009 Winnebago Journey 34Y. I noticed that it has the Coleman Trueair basement style air conditioning unit instead of 2 units on the roof. Should I be concerned? Is this a good or bad thing? Anything I should know or is this a non-issue?

As you can see and read, the majority of owners of basement A/C units have been, are now and will, for the most part, be thoroughly happy with them. As for them "Freezing" you in HOT weather, well, that's a matter of opinion and of course, the condition of the A/C unit itself and corresponding ducting. Our coach is an '04 Itasca Horizon 36GD with the C-7 330HP CAT and the basement A/C in it has worked very good for the 7.5 years we've owned the coach. I did have to replace one bronze bushing for one of the fan shafts but, no biggie.

They are an easy unit to remove and service. One issue that is not all that common is, the ducting at or near the "Y" joint in between the back of the coach and inner wall can separate some. Some will repair through removing a tail light. But, by and large, they are a good unit.
