Hope to have a roof and porch on the Puma this summer also. Nothing cools better than reflecting the heat. The refrigerator and ac will like me for that along with the electric bill.

The AC , up on the roof how will you mitigate that . My 81 Avion needs a new AC Heat pump I guess . I guess it just drains on the roof which seem to me a poor design . I've here tell of split units . Maby on a more park model situation .

Been looking at new thec. I only need ac. The forced air furnace heats the place if the propane tank were only bigger.
In your case a mini split maybe more suitable.

I have that 81 avion . I need to pull the tarps off it . The AC is on the roof . But to my knowledge it drains down on the roof which seems like a bad design . To be honest I need to see if there is some kind of blank off for the 14 x 14 hole in the roof pretty sure . The 52 could maby get a mini split . May be able to put it above the frig .

The roof is a common place for the AC. Cold air drops and hot air rises. Water dripping from the roof is not a big issue as long as the unit is serviced like it should be. Drain hole should be onto the roof side opposite the doors. For some odd reason we don't like water dripping on us.
New thec allows the unit to start using less power and will be a good thing if I chose to camp off grid.

These Big windows were a lot to look forward two . I had already paid the owner and told them I would take it . It was a huge gamble and I was somewhat willing to walk away if things went south . With it low to the ground I had to take a hammer and beat on the frame to look for rusted spots .

I did get my third strap on . Which I would not try to ride out a storm but they may help if I happen to get caught off guard . I feel better for making the effort . This one is a trailer in Freemont that I wanted to take a picture of before someone takes a X to it . if you zero in on it . You can see the straps around the roof . Most of the old really nice trailers simply get pushed off the blocks and they become damaged beyond repair . It would be nice if some one would either save or part out that trailer .
