You want info, but from your tone you are becoming a jerk. I ASKED questions because I probably have MORE knowledge and info than anybody on this forum. If you ONLY camp at an RV park that ALLOWS you to install carports and it will only be at that park with a Carport, then do want you want to do. There is NO difference in reliability between a 13.5 and a 15. The reason I ask some questions is, there is a BIG difference between cooling a standard box trailer and a trailer with a Slide room. The slide room adds Sq. Footage that most Rv'ers never think of. I would ALWAYS install the largest capacity AC unit unless it was in a trailer less than 21 feet. You state you do NOT need more capacity. But what happens if you camp somewhere where you do NOT have a Carport cover? Doug
If a 13,500 btu air conditioner is adequate for my current 8 X 26 foot box, I think it will be adequate for my next 8 X 26 foot box. I know about slides. I know about fifth wheels. I know a jerk when I hear from one who brags about his infinite knowledge. I simply wanted to know if there was any inherent advantage/disadvantage between to the two units. Where I park in the summer or fall is irrelevant. The only time I park in a really hot climate is when I am under the carport. I know the difference between Minnesota in May and South Texas in July. Thanks for your comparison but not for calling me a jerk. I know what I want to know. You answered it once and then took off in ten different directions.
