Health Checkup For Coleman RV Air Conditioners

As an RV owner, you paid a great deal for your Coleman RV air conditioner. I know that - so I also know that you want to keep it running well. But, like me, you may have trouble in reading your owner's manual. Sometimes they are very difficult to understand - too technical. While I cannot answer every question that you might have in this short article, I will try to share some personal thoughts and experiences with you.

First of all, and most importantly: if you want your Coleman RV air conditioner to consistently operate at it's best, you will have to clean it regularly. You don't have any other option --and I'm not talking about only cleaning off the outsides.

In addition to cleaning the outside, you will need to get inside of your unit - just a little bit. A good example is your air filter. Some models of air conditioners use disposable air filters. When they become dirty, just throw them out and replace with a new one. Don't try to cheat and clean it off -- it will not work properly if you try to recycle it.

If your Coleman RV air conditioner uses the washable kind of air filters, then of course you can rinse it out. How often should you do this? Well, depending on how much you are using your AC, you may have to wash it out several times a month. If you are running it in dusty and dirty locations, you may have to clean it even more often than that.

The top of your Coleman RV air conditioner should also be inspected. I am talking about the part that sticks up out of your roof. You see, sometimes small stones, leaves and sticks can get caught in there, and you will need to get that stuff out of there - you can use an old-fashioned broom and just sweep out all the nooks and crannies.

And while you are inspecting the top, make sure to check the gasket. That's the seal-like thingy that your Coleman RV air conditioner sits on. If that seal gets dirty or worn out, moisture could leak in and drip down into the inside of your RV.

A final area to inspect: Your Coleman RV air conditioner has drainage holes. All AC units have them - it's where condensed water drains out safely to the outside.

If these water drainage holes have become blocked, the moisture could back up into the AC unit itself -- and it could even leak into your RV. Make sure they are kept open - no leaves or stones or other matter should be allowed to block them.
