We are excited to be purchasing our first Motorcoach and becoming a part of the Prevost family. We are looking at a few Prevost XL2 Country Coach conversions in the 2006 year range.
Question - all of these coaches have central/basement air. Most other coaches I've researched so far have roof air. From what I've learned so far it seems like both have pros and cons.
Roof Air Pros:
- Frees up more basement storage
- Easier to swap out if one fails and lesser cost ($2500ish per unit?)
Roof Air Cons:
- Noisier inside the coach
- Harder to keep coach cold in warm/hot climates?
Central/Basement Air Pros:
- Extremely quiet inside the coach
- Seemed to keep inside of coach cold (we visited the coach in FL on a sunny 90 degree day)
Central/Basement Air Cons:
- Takes up basement storage
- These aren't made anymore? BUT, similar to a home a/c unit so can be repaired easily?
Am I missing anything or incorrect on any of these points? I appreciate anyone's input who has experience with both of these types of units.
Thanks!
