2014 36CKTS Height

Brochure says height is 12'11" including AC. We have front AC 13,500 BTU. Looks like a low profile unit (Penguin 2 maybe??). I'm pretty sure it in not included for that height.

Does anyone know the correct numbers?

Best way to get correct number is to get a ladder, level and tape measure and do it yourself. That way you know what you have. Just make sure you are hooked to the rig and on level ground.

If you take someone else's no.s, you have no idea how they got the no.s or if the trailer was riding the same as yours does.

Old Coot is dead on with his reply. You can have the measurement done by the selling dealer, but only if you trust the performing tech. Remember they are busy so might rush it or worse fudge it to mollify you & get you "outta my hair."

Also, by doing it yourself will give you and opportunity to look over the roof and other installations up there.

Travel safe! Be informed & always enjoy your journeys!

With the trailer level and empty it is 13'4" to the top of the Penguin. If your trailer does not ride level and/or you add (or remove) weight, that number will be slightly different. I set my low bridge alert at 13'8".
