air cond run time

Hi,

Run it as long as you want. But watch the voltage sag. My personal comfort zone is no lower than 107 volts. I'm having to use extraordinary measures to get there this summer.

If it doesn't need to run 4-5hrs straight, you probably don't need air/con.

We ran our AC on the Sunset Trail 250RB for 8 days straight non-stop while in Myrtle Beach the first week of June. We did that to stay ahead of the cooling.

Most components in our RV's are not designed for heavy duty day after day, week after week, month after month use. People who decide to stay south twelve months a year soon discover this. What works great for a few weekends a summer may not do as well long term. If the OP is only asking about running it constantly for a weekend, no problem.

Fulltimers may run them for months without shutting off. No, it is not a problem.

My 14 year old Coleman AC is still ice cold and I've run it for 14 hours a day, 3 days straight.. Once it gets cold in the trailer, it'll cycle on and off for the temp you have set. Just like your home AC unit.

Then it'll sit for a month and not get used at all while at home during the summer. Then it will sit all winter too.

Use it as needed and that's all you can do.

I used to be an HVAC service tech and no it won't hurt them to run continuously. It is actually harder on them to start and stop all the time.

No it won't hurt it.
I've run mine for 3days straight. They are made to run continuously.
