new tt, a/c too small, refrigerator question
So about 3 weeks ago I bought a Dutchman Aspen Trail 18rb. 2 problems i have with it. The A/C is only 8,000 btu window unit, the other is the fridge.
So here is Texas with the temps running about 95 to 98 this weekend, during the day the A/C will only cool the trailer to 80 degrees until the sun goes down. Cooled it to 65 by in the morning then back up to 80 by noonish. This is also with the bathroom door closed to cut down the area to keep cool. Wish I could return the trailer, but probably too late now that i bought it. So my question is has anyone ever change out theirs 8,000 btu with a 12000 btu and put it where the current A/c is located. What are the other options for my delema?
On to the fridge. I park the tt in my driveway, but cant get it level enough there it run the fridge for 3 days before i leave out to get it cold. I have thought of putting a small fridge in that just runs on 120 volts and freon, but how would i keep things cold on a 4 to 6 hour drive? Any other suggestions?
