Running Cruise-Airs continuously

[Ryan Wright]

Thanks Ernie, Howard, & everyone else who responded. I appreciate the
filter information. I will look into those and ensure they are clean,
and replace if not.

"outer" metal frame filters are made by Smith Filter Corp. [www dot smithfilter
dot com] and they are still in business and you can order direct. The metal mesh
has a foam filter between the metal mesh. As old as the filters probably are the
foam will be deteriorated and fall apart when washed mine did. If the metal
mesh filters are still there and the center foam sheet is missing don't repeat
don't use that filter.

really need both filters to protect the coils. On my coach the bedroom filters
are behind the second mirrowed door behind the bed on the right side [street
side]. One in the closet next to the stove down low and one under the couch.
Get a good light and check the coils to see if they need cleaning. There is also
drains under these coils if you are not dripping water when running the units
you need to check for a stopped up drain. The basement [outside] unit probably
needs cleaning. Once everything is finished turn each unit on and let them run
for an hour. Take a temperature probe and insert in the inside cooling vent of
each unit and check the temp if you see a high temp that unit needs further
service. You need to know if the units have been converted to 134A. Hope this
helps.
