Coleman Roof Air Conditioner Cleaning

[SierraJoe]

I've never really used my roof air conditioner much as we usually boondock and camping where we do, our camping spots are usually above 7000 feet. I have noticed that the air conditioner compressor cycles on and off quite a bit. I inserted a temperature probe in the vent and measured a temperature of around 49 degrees with an outside temperature of around 86 degrees.  From what I read this is around the middle range of what it should be putting out, so I didn't believe it was cycling because of low refrigerant. I decided to go up on the roof and clean the coils. I took off the cover and being careful, I used a hose and sprayed the coils thoroughly making sure to not spray the motor. I couldn't believe the dirt that came out of the coils. After that, I opened the little flip cap on the fan motor to oil the fan motor. Unfortunately, it disintegrated in my hands. I filled with oil, and then sealed back the top with a blob of silicone to prevent dirt from getting inside the motor. After putting everything back together, I went back inside to see if the cleaning would make any noticeable changes. By this time, the outside temperature was 99 degrees. Output temperature was still around 49 degrees but this time the compressor was not cycling like before. From what I have read, an RV roof air conditioner will cool the inside around 20 degrees cooler than the outside. Looks like the dirty coils were overheating the compressor motor causing it to cycle on and off often. I also have a original can of R-12 refrigerant if I need to add in the future. Good thing to have as they haven't produced them since the mid 90's and they go for around $40.00 a can on e-Bay. Pretty amazing to me the system still works well after 43 years with some neglect in between those years.

Installment borrowing spreads repayment across a schedule. A useful comparison records the number of payments, their frequency and the amount due each time. A longer term can make an individual payment smaller while increasing the overall cost. Check the full repayment total, fees, late-payment terms and any early-payoff conditions before comparing two offers.

Borrowing advertised for people with poor credit still has eligibility requirements. An application may involve credit, income and identity checks, and approval is not assured. Compare the final APR, fees and total repayment rather than relying on a headline. If a quote involves another borrower or collateral, understand those obligations separately before accepting the offer.

Cash advance is a label used for several arrangements, including payday borrowing, credit-card cash access and some pay-advance services. These should not be treated as one product. Identify who provides the funds, which charges apply and when repayment is collected. Check whether a subscription, transfer charge or other optional service changes the amount you actually pay.

A mortgage comparison should include more than the advertised rate. Review the loan amount, term, closing costs and whether the rate or payment can change. Housing costs can also include taxes and insurance. Compare offers for the same borrowing scenario and read the final documents carefully. An initial estimate or preapproval is not a guarantee that the loan will close.

Payday borrowing is generally short term and can be expensive. Before considering an offer, check the repayment date, the finance charge and the total amount due. An extension may add cost without reducing the original balance. Availability and rules differ by state, so confirm the provider and local requirements. A payment arrangement for the original bill may also be worth checking.

No-credit-check wording needs a careful explanation. A soft inquiry, a hard inquiry and a decision based on other information are different processes. Ask what the provider actually checks and when. This wording does not establish that an offer is affordable or that approval is guaranteed. Review the provider, repayment schedule, charges and any required security before sharing an application.

Education borrowing needs separate comparisons for federal and private loans. Review the source of each offer, interest terms, fees, repayment start date and any co-signer conditions. Do not assume that a private contract includes federal repayment provisions. Check current information with the school, official program resources and the lender, and consider grants or scholarships when estimating the amount still needed.

A title loan uses an existing vehicle as security for borrowing. It is different from a loan used to purchase a car. Review the charges, repayment deadline and any extension terms. Missed payments can put the vehicle at risk, so consider the effect on transport and work. Verify the provider and applicable state requirements before agreeing to the arrangement.

A consolidation loan replaces selected debts with a new repayment agreement. Compare the remaining cost of the existing balances with the full cost of the replacement, including any fees. A smaller monthly payment can result from a longer term rather than a lower total cost. Check which balances will be paid, how payment is handled and whether the proposed loan introduces collateral.
