hi, I bet nobody has asked that question,yet.
We know those fixed air con units are expensive because they are
specially only for RVs and boats, and also we don't like their weight, if
they are installed on the roof.
Why not use a small mobile unit as they are used in normal houses?
They are cheap and can be taken out, when the caravan/ camper is used over
the cold months.
Does anybody use them for that purpose?
Chris

I have
THIS ONE in my 17 ft caravan, which is insulated as most vans these days are.
It works a treat. Will provide brass monkey conditions LOL.
Much better and quieter than most roof top units I have had.
It lives alongside the rear island bed, on the port side, and the vent is through the floor via a small hatch which I removed under the wardrobe drawer on that side.
I don't use the heat cycle in the caravan. For that I use a ceramic fan heater.
I looked at plenty before I decided on this one, only after seeing one in action.
Fred.
