The vents in the rear section of the RV get VERY little airflow the front 2/3 isn't too bad. I've been experimenting by adding "diverters" into the airflow in the main duct area to try to divert air into the vents that hang off at 90 degrees without reducing the airflow too much to the front. I put them in yesterday and will be on the road this weekend to test. My preliminary tests have been very positive but I do need to get hold of an anemometer to obtain emperical data on airflow.
I suspect, because of the poor airflow in the rear, the majority of my cooling in the rear is from air flow moving front to back as return air - which means I have to cool the entire front before the back starts to cool.
We'll see the result after this weekend.

I had wondered about the basement air flow in the rear of the coach as compared to the front. The front of our coach also receives more cold air than the bedroom. Question: What holds those vents to the ceiling; there must be something more than that soft ceiling? Joe
