cooling the caravan
Bought a 1.5HP split cooler - still in its box.
Anyone know if it's possible to mount one of these on/in a caravan?
Compressor welded to extensions on the chassis?
Anybody ever done it - or knows?
Thanks
Otherwise... 1.5 HP split cooler for sale...
Cheers
Jedo

We have installed a couple in caravans that were no longer going to be moved, with no problems. I dont see why you couldnt attach it has you mentioned, just make sure its very well secured, and you may want to find out if there are any requirements from your road authority in regards to how loads should be attached.
One of the only problems i see is on long trips vibration may cause some weakening of flare joints and create leaks, but if its installed correctly and well secured it may not be an issue.I accept no liability or responsibility for advice offered by myself regarding Electrical or Airconditioning related questions. I strongly advise contacting a Licensed Tradeperson for all work of this nature.
