Ductless AC instead of roof mounted AC
In addition to my roof repairs I am replacing the AC unit on my trailer. Does anyone have any experience with the Mini Split Ductless AC Heat Pump reliability on an RV? I have seen installs on youtub...

I might have a solution for the potential fitting issue.
I have found a local hydraulic hose guy that can make AC rated flexible hoses like used in an automobile.
He will make a 2 ft pc (pressure and suction) that can go between the compressor and the line set. That should solve any stress at the connectors allow freedom of movement and reduce the effect of any potential weak flair issue.
The unit I'm getting is a heat pump so it will cool and heat.
I have no issue with the way they work. I have an old house and the upstairs was not air conditioned. We only use the bedrooms and bath when we have guest. I have 2 small units for 4 years now and they work fine for our need.
Concerns are how long will it last in a 22 ft Terry TT (what do I need to do to extend life), and what size do I need.
I'm putting a new roof and ceiling in but will leave the frame work for the roof top AC just in case this does not work.
One additional concern. Should I use 110v at 7 amps or 220v at 3.5amps? Has anyone ran into a campsite with only 110v available?
