Note: Review the air conditioning literature supplied in
your Owner’s Packet before proceeding,
The roof air conditioner used on Airstream trailers is one
of the most popular on the market today. In your Owner’s
Packet is a set of literature covering all operating and
maintenance instructions. If the literature is misplaced
please contact the air conditioner manufacturer or your
Airstream dealer for replacement.
The voltage to the air conditioner is critical. We commonly
refer to 110 or 120 volts, but a check with a voltmeter
may find voltage much lower. Your air conditioner will
probably not function if the current drops below 105
volts. Low voltage is usually associated with older or
poorly maintained trailer parks, but many people have
found their homes, built only twenty or thirty years ago,
may not be capable of operating the air conditioner on
some receptacles, Parking your trailer so the power
cord can be plugged into a receptacle close to the fuse
or circuit breaker box can alleviate the problem. Avoid
extension cords and adapters whenever possible. If an
extension cord must be used it should be as short and
heavy as possible to provide the most current to the air
conditioner.
If high temperatures are expected, you should make an
effort to park in a shaded area. Starting the air conditioner
early in the morning also helps. It is much easier to hold a
comfortable temperature than it is to lower the temperature
after the interior of the trailer is already hot.
