Is it necessary to cover the air conditioning shroud like the one here

Never found it necessary.

Thanks Javi.

Anyone else?

I wonder why they even sell covers?

[jtyphoid]

I've never used one, either.

Why do they sell them? Because people can be convinced to buy them.

I bought one about 17 years ago ..... put it on for one winter ..... then I realized that it made a great storage bag for my BBQ and that has been it's job ever since. I don't see any need for one either. :D

Camping World have them on SALE at the start of winterization because no one is buying them LOL, we have never used one nor seen the need for one

Hmmmmm Why buy an A/C cover? Just use the mattress cover you took off the mattress when you bought the gelfoam mattress pad :D

Oh? You didn't have a mattress cover? Oh well, might as well just leave your A/C uncovered like the rest of us ;)

I have found no need for one in 15 years of RV'ing

Ha what kind of question is that? Only a fool would ask that. There's no use for an AC cover, no ones ever used one of those before.

So first I'll say I don't use one either, but I like to offer a possible benefit to the use of one The UV rays from the sun will make the AC shroud cover briddle over time.

The use of this cover sould extend its life. I would recommend just waiting and replacing the shroud when it becomes brittle in 5-10 yrs. That cover will wear out before your shroud does basically.

Don't waste your money.
