Make and Model? First. if it's more than a few years old you might want to looks at some of the 15000 BTU jobs.. I replaced a 13.5 with 1 15K and the amazing thing is the power draw is ..... Identical.. More cool, same watts.
Why Upgrade. Well It's getting hotter out every year, Record breaking heat waves.
Now: What's wrong with your A/C.. in my case it was catastrophic failure of the cooling uint. (THe part that is above the roof) Carrier (Mine are Carrier Air Vs) no longer makes RV air conditioners so a direct replacement was not possible (Having seen how they bungled my unit (Died of a factory error) I'm not surprised they left the field)
I was able to get a "Drop on" replacement though. Mine is Advent air (I do not recommend) I believe one of the companies that start with "C" also makes one that fits. What I forget is which company.. But a good dealer will know.
Curious why you would not recommend the Advent? I have been watching them for a bit. Jim
