Air Conditioner
Why do manufacturer's put 13,500 btu air conditioners in small 19ft travel trailers.Isn't this overkill.

I wonder why they don't put 15K in all of them.
well you don't want it too big as you want it running a lot of the time since you aren't taking out humidity when it isn't running.

I've never seen a trailer that was over cooled by a 15K BTU air conditioner. I don't understand why the 13.5K models are used at all.
Theoretically, you can have so much air conditioning that the unit will short cycle and not dehumidify, but I've never seen that happen in a trailer. If you think you have too much AC, spend a couple of weekends on the Texas coast in August.
Ya, but you don't live in MN. Here it is very easy to have a AC that gets the house too cold and yet does not remove enough humidity to make it feel comfortable. My house is like that. It's either too cold or too humid. My poorly designed HEVAC system can never make it feel comfortable in the house. I believe the same problem could be possible in a Travel Trailer
