Second AC

From : moparman

Q: dave lee wrote my new montana mountaineer just does get cool enough for us so ive been looking into adding the 2nd ac in the bedroom. of course when i bought it the salesman said it was already wired and all i needed to do was drop one in....aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaa nope. i took the vent out yesterday and its braced for a unit but no ac is ran. anyway after doing some research ive decided not to go with a roof mount and have found a semi portable unit for about the same price. http//www.sylvane.com/sunpentown-wa1230.html i ordered the 1230h which has the heater also. pull around 9 amps and will actually fit in my bedroom closet. im going to add another circuit box and wire it separately from the 50 amp service as most of the places we go including my hunting camp only have 30 amp service. i figure the a 20 amp breaker and the proper wire and another 120vac heavy duty extension cord should work to connect the new ac to the 20 amp service that all the places we go have in addition to the 30 amp service. i see no reason why this wont work and i figure i can run both acs even though the main ac will be on the 30 amp service. anyone else got something like this -- moparman---remove clothes to reply! --scud coordinates 32.61204 north 96.92993 west-- sounds good to me but i think yer askin fer trouble round here with that question lol no problems from me. many might remember that this idea started prior to 50 amp service. was the normal way to run all the extra things you wanted like cooking on electric grills and hot plates. -- bill p. i dont know if its just texas arkansas and oklabygodhoma but i rarely see a camp area with 50amp service. i never stay at koa or private campground mainly because i havent found one with a view i feel like paying for. and i cant stand camping so close together that the camper next to me can her my wife snore and fart. -- moparman---remove clothes to reply! --scud coordinates 32.61204 north 96.92993 west-- .
