New AC went in yesterday. $230 for the labor onsite at the park. I ended up finding a 13.5 btu unit without control board for $960 in Panama. The local installer had the correct control board $150 in stock.

Other than a black cover (what they had in stock) we are happy to be back in business. If and when the back AC goes out I will buy a 15K btu unit with heat pump and move this new unit to the back.  This should improve the situation when staying at sites with only 30 amp connections.

This is very interesting.  Perhaps a separate thread...moderator?

Dual fans , Screw compressor , 3 fan speeds, 14K cooling. Good price .
Lots of smoke and mirrors on this unit, with no supporting data on their claimed efficiency. Screw compressor has been around a long time but is no means a revolution in efficiency. Separate fans are a good idea.

What claim is out of range?

After watching the video the "claimed" 25% more efficient furrion units would put the 13.5k competition at over 1800 watts vs the 13.5k btuh furrion unit running at 1450 watts at some not "stated" conditions vs the 13.5 k Coleman at 1075 watts standard conditions and 1320 watts at desert conditions. Typically in the USA standard conditions are 95 degree ambient, and high temp conditions are 105. So sounds like BS hype to me.
