I mostly dry camp in remote areas and have backed into sites and hit trees branches that bend the fins. It is an easy thing to clean and comb the fins. Much like my genset I just exercise the AC several times a years at home to just make sure it still works.Tvov wrote:
It has never occurred to me to clean out the A/C coils on our camper. How much do you guys use your AC? We usually only use ours a couples weekends during the hottest part of the summer. Going on 20 years, AC still works fine.
If you don't use it, sure you can skimp on maintenance.
The unit will still work but it won't cool as much or as efficiently.
