Recommendations regarding Solar Power
We are new to RVing and considering roof-mount Solar system both to keep the batteries topped off but also to run the A/C or uWave. I'm thinking about a 200 Watt system. I am concerned about where...

You will need 2000+ watts solar to run the air conditioner. Lots of battery too as the sun goes down. Maybe you meant power small A/C items like a laptop, much easier.
Not sure what a uWave is. Microwave needs an 1800+ watt inverter to run off the battery(s) for a few minutes. The 200w solar would then be recharging all day.
Here are some solar installs to look at:

Usually the wire goes down the fridge vent or waste tank vent. Controller should be close to the battery for best results.
