Front bedroom

Does anyone else notice how warm the front bedroom is compared to rest of camper. I'm thinking about putting in another vent or changing out bathroom vent to one of the turning adjustable dampening vents to close it a lot to see if that puts more air to the bedroom. 26rr grey wolf

Front Bedroom

Yesterday was maybe our last 80 degree day of the season so I decided to test the AC and discovered the same thing. Three vents on that run with the last being the bedroom. Pointed the vents forward and that helped some. I think maybe blocking the kitchen vent maybe.

My solution to ac issue. Cut piece of cardboard and white paper to the size of inner circle then start duct tape along sides and fold over. Leave two slats open, enough to cool bathroom. This pushes more air out of the last hole in the trunk which is in bed room. Now almost as much comes out there as in the living space. Of course it is cooler now but can feel difference in just the air movement.

Our front bedroom seems to get warm when the ac is set to auto. I have started setting the AC to hi at nite. The compressor still cycles with the need for temperature but the fan always runs creating some air flow towards the bed. I also point the bath vent towards the bedroom door and close the door into the living room

I understand leaving the fan on all the time even when AC is not running may freeze up your compressor.

On my Vengeance 25V I can close the output vent at the AC and it diverts all the air to the external vents. The one in the bathroom I point to the front bedroom and leave the bathroom door open.

Have been doing this last three trips and have not had any issue with freezing. I revert back to my last trailer which did not have an auto function and the fan would run all the time.
