I've got a 40' 5th wheel and I also put a 13.5 unit in the bedroom. About the only time we really use it is during the hottest part of the day. It seems to cool ok, but, surprisingly, the 15k unit cools the whole rig pretty well. Our biggest issue with it is the noise, and the heat strip, we installed just takes the edge off on cool nights. If you're trying to run the 13.5, and turn off the 15k, your not going to get the cooling you need IMHO. If your rig is a 5th wheel, the cool air is going to settle to the lower part of the trailer and the warm air will rise to the bedroom. Better to run both and set the thermostats accordingly.
