Re: AC keeps freezing up
You say you had to refill it? Does this mean it leaks? If so, it may be leaking out in a few minutes/hours and causing this. If not leaking, you should have a thermistor attached to the coils to detect a freezing condition and then turn off the compressor until the coils thaw then resets to turn the compressor back on. If the thermistor is not working, it could cause the unit to freeze up.372Views0likes0CommentsRe: topsail vs henderson beach

Thanks We were there all last week. Cable hooks right up to your trailer connection, included in the price of the lot. You'll love Topsail, it's a very beautiful campground that is maintained meticulously. FYI, don't tie anything around any trees or drive any thing into the ground, you will be fined.467Views0likes0CommentsRe: Power Awning?
With the power awning, it only takes a few seconds to deploy and retract. That being the case, everytime we leave the camper for more than 30 minutes, we simply retract the awning. No chance of it being ripped off the camper by wind. There is practically no effort to do this, even if you have to do it multiple times a day. Even with tying down the manual awning, there is still a chance of it being damaged by wind if strong enough. There is no way I'd go back to a manual awning.388Views0likes0CommentsRe: Jayco Jayflight - opinions from owners...?
Been the owner of a Jayflight 26BHS G2 since February 2009. Only issue I've had (so far) is the converter went out after 1 year and was replace by warranty for free. I like the fact that the roof is not flat. My previous camper had a flat roof and I had water intrusion issues around the A/C unit. The Jayflight has a nice slight curvature to the roof that tends to shed excess water. Of course it's still not leak proof, but with eternabonding all the seams and penetrations, I've greatly reduced the probability of it leaking. All in all, I've been very satisfied with my unit.720Views0likes0CommentsRe: Cover or not to cover
Your roof and the paint/decals will last longer if protected from UV rays. I don't recommend using a tarp as it won't breath and is not soft like covers designed to be used on campers. Many people think that a cover is to keep the rain off, however, UV light is the primary reason for a cover.305Views0likes0Comments
