Thanks DougRainer
I was told by my original installer about turning the thermostat back a little. I just thought this ac was built to run and to turn back the temp kinda defeats the purpose of getting it cold inside. But I guess if I have to.

I have a 13.5 BTU Coleman 9000 series Non-ducted roof AC (9330A713). Here is a quote from the RV manual:
When the outdoor temperatures drop in the evening to below 75°F, the temperature control should be set midway between WARMER and COOLER. Otherwise the evaporator coil may become iced up and stop cooling. Should icing up occur, it is necessary to turn the air conditioner off for at least 45 minutes to clear the coil of ice. Alternatively, you may turn the selector to the HI FAN position until increased airflow is observed.
I wish there was an easy retrofit to move the controls to a wall unit that has an actual (analog or digital) thermostat in it. Such is life. Someday I will replace it with a unit that also has a dehumidifier in it, like this one, except with more than 11k BTU.
