FC Generator Replacement

[casmith]

Hi Bruce,
I'd like to add that in my 91 PT40 the A/C ducting consists of a one
piece tube(duct) running down both sides of the coach. From this tube,
the register vents "drop". Approximately, 7 per side. Due to the
non-compartmentalized design, running one A/C unit puts air into these
tubes and sends the cooled air mostly into area of the coach where the
unit is located. Some air travels through the duct to the other vents.
To increase air flow to any register, additional A/C units must be
turned on. I had a different coach with roof tops that were not
ducted. These would cool only the area under the unit so we would turn
on the front one when traveling and the rear one at night. Worked
well. I have experimented with sectioning the long ducts the give a
more localized cool down.
