Roof AC

by pat malavasic

Question: We recently purchased an older 5th Wheel. The interior is in very good condition and ,I believe, the unit has been well cared for. When the AC was turned one the first time, the Ac works fine, but water was dripping down the outside of the camper. Any suggestions to solve this problem would be greatly appreciated. We are an older couple and are anxious to get moving with this unit. Thanx..

Robbie: Water running down the side of your unit from the AC is a good thing. Just like water dripping out from under your car when you use the dash AC. There is a hole in the AC allowing the water to run onto your roof and you seeing this water tells you the AC is working fine. When a customer calls me saying they are having a problem with there AC cooling, one of the first questions I ask is "Do you have water running down the side of the coach".

Relax and enjoy, everything is fine,
Robbie
