Re: [VAL] Portable AC



Hi Guys,

Haven't been paying a lot of attention to the thread; however, messing up a
window on an Airstream sends shutters.

Have there been posts where the intake air is drawn through the floor, much
like the refrigerator?  Thought there was a lot of discussion in past posts
where the AC was installed under a bench, rather than on the roof.  My
Argosy had an owner installed AC on the roof and bracing was not added per
installation specifications.  Think there was no intention of towing.  So,
with towing, lots of rivets break and develop roof leaks.  I realize that
space is at a premium in any travel unit. But there has to be a way to
install an AC without destroying the aesthetics of the Airstream?
