A/C in the South

[Photo Lab]

As mentioned above in a number of posts, cutting down on radiant heat will be a big help in a hurry, as will reorienting the RV if possible. One thing I used myself in the early sixties, when I was a young apprentice, living in Central Florida, and limited funds, I covered the East and large West windows with aluminum foil, shiny side out. While I did this primarily to darken the room and make a makeshift closet dark room for my photo hobby, it made the room amazingly cooler, as well as lowering the electric bill! Another trick would be a water mister on the condenser coil to help remove the heat. Many late model high efficiency A/C units are designed so the condenser fan will pick up the condensate water, and spray it into the condenser coils. Helps keep condensate water from running down the side of the RV, too!

You won't believe how much difference blocking the suns rays from heating up the inside of your camper will make. Also hugely helpful in the cold, keeping it warmer!
