2019 Heartland NorthTrail Dual AC Units v Upgrade to 15k
We just purchased our 2019 Heartland North Trail Caliber 27RBDS TT. From past experience with varying sizes of TTs and High Heat & Humidity in the upper Midwest, I asked about our options at the time of purchasing the TT for Upgrading our Cooling Abilities. It comes with the std 13,500. But, I would, at a minimum like to upgrade that to a 15,000 unit. Ideally, thinking of those really hot 112 heat index with super high humidity days in direct sunlight ... and having iced up many times a new 13,500 unit on a 27ft TT ... I'd like to install a 2nd 13,500 unit.
Adding 2nd Unit: I was told there is no pre-wiring and that would have to be installed. Also, it requires 50a and there are extra installations to do this. Total cost for only those two things (not including the actual 2nd AC unit) is $2,500.
Upgrading to 15k from 13,5: $1400 if I keep the 13,5 AC Unit. $900 if they keep it.
My initial thought is $900 is a lot less expensive and will keep me cool 95% of the time without the use of fans to assist.
But, what I don't know is if I'm getting ripped off for the $900 amount.
Any help is appreciated. I need to make the decision by 3pm tomorrow, Saturday 6/15/2019.
