    One thing I haven't seen addressed regarding roof airs is the drain for each unit. I only know about this because this past summer I helped Bob while he attempted to unclog them. Water would not do it, we had to use an air compressor and power pressure the dirt and debris through the lines. It worked, and all is well for now.

    Regarding the noise issue of roof airs, at first that bothered me as well. However, after reading the manual, ahem, we discovered that we were not using the automatic temperature and fan controls appropriately. The noise is not annoying now and the coach really stays cool.

    Something else worth noting. We have four roof airs. Brian, the service manager at Millennium advised us to run one even number air and one odd at the same time. According to him, this puts an equal load on the invertors. As far as traveling down the road, we have found that running the driver air only works well for us, no need to even use the roof airs so far. Personally, we have had both cruise air and now roof air and the roof air seems much more efficient.

    A product I would reccomend for sealing between your roof and your AC Unit or roof fan is Butyl Tape. As wide and thick size as you can get to fit the flange area. Roof and bottom of the flange must be clean before putting tape down. Hide the tape under the flange from sun if you can.
    cut matching z shapes at the corners so thickness does not overlap.
    Always use nylon inserted lock nuts on the bolts. 5/16" min bolt diameter.
    The material stays soft in weather extremes. Good Luck.

    I just read Ed's comment about wearing ear pluggs at night. I guess he just told on me HUH? Sandy
