36 foot and 1- 15k AC unit. 99 degrees outside. It will NOT cool period. Now, at this point, you need the compressor amps checked. NOTHING else will do for a check out other than this. Once that is done will determine if the AC unit is performing to spec. RVP(Coleman) will not warranty this unit. It is too old. Doug
Thanks everyone for the replies
Let me clarify a few things
Coach is 35 feet but 10+ of it is garage.
Garage door was shut and vents closed as to not cool the garage.
I was using a plain old orange extension cord like for power tools or something.
Since we were parked at home nothing was on in the coach except the battery charger was running
Voltage at the plug is unknown but i can check that today.
When i was on the roof like i said in the first post i DID clean out the entire unit and check the ducting for leaks
Should the AC have separate breakers for fan and compressor? I doubt it but ill look today.
For those of you suggesting the AC will not cool the coach, why do they sell it then?
If that were the case i doubt i would be the first person to complain about it
I know a bigger unit would be "better" but like i said we typically use the ac twice a year
we camp in the colorado mountains
