I did a similar install in my kitchen vent opening. instead of tying into exist thermostat I bought a self contained 15k btu Coleman AC with heat pump. I hard wired it to back and in electrical bay I installed a 30amp breaker and box with plug to run to camp ground pedestal. Only thing I cannot do is run it while on road but have not needed it yet. The 3rd AC is a great adder It has reduced our heater use and keep us cool in the hot Texas summers.

I just gotta ask as to the why of the 30amp breaker and if you indeed used #10awg wiring for this? Because if anything smaller, like #12 maybe, then this wiring isn't properly protected. Even if you used the #10 for possible voltage drops or for whatever other reason, you should have still used a 20amp breaker.
