For those of you experiencing cooling problems where the temperature of the air coming into the house is less than 20* cooler than the ambient temperature, What color are the external shrouds on your AC units?
The reason I ask this is because I read a post one of the forums recently (can't remember which one) where the OP was having a similar problem. His AC shrouds were black. After several attempts at trying to rectify the problem he finally removed the shrouds and painted them white. The new paint job resulted in reflecting enough sunlight that the temperature of the air coming out of the ducts was dropped by 10*.
It may be a long shot, but a $20.00 spray can paint job may cure the problem.
To further complicate the problem we have a 2013 Adventurer 32H. It has a full wall slide and a bedroom slide. It has the "Spring Mist" full body paint and 2 13,500 BTU AC's with heat pumps. The shrouds on these AC units are black. We have spent extensive time in situations where the temperatures are in excess of 90* with high humidity. We have never had a problem keeping the interior in the mid 70's
