Like others have said, expect the inside temp to be 20 to 25 degrees cooler than the outside temp.
This is true unless you your rig is prepped for the hot weather. I.E. Dual paned windows, black out shades, sun screens on the outside etc. We cranked up all three 15,000btu units in Yuma two months ago (117degrees) put the sun screens on and still had to drop the shades in the front to even get some semblance of coolness. In heat like that, you need to experiment with your particular coach to determine what you can do to make it comfortable. Parking under some shade will help as well. Get a roll of sunblock from Home Depot and make cutouts for the windows. Outside covers work best..How's the water level at Lake Mead? Where are you? AZ or Nev?.....Dennis
Yeah, this coach seemed better insulated than our old on, but apparently not enough. It's like eyeball frying hot out there. I love the idea of getting that bubble insulation for the windows. I might have to play with that a bit.
We are in NV. We love this park here in Boulder City and this is our go to park for a quick weekend get-a-way or a shake-down trip like we're doing this weekend. We're ready to get out and explore more though.
