Replacement A/c Shroud

[Quad]

We are planing a few trips to the beach this year and came across a good used duo therm 13.5k a/c unit for free from a friend. But it does need a new shroud as the one on it is missing. Does anyone have a idea of where to start looking for one at a decent price?

Should have noted this is for a second a/c in the bunkhouse of our 5er too.

Search for "RV Salvage" on-line. You may find one used or overstocked. JM2¢, Hank ...... Asking Santa for one probably won't work. http://www.keystonerv.org/forums/picture.php?albumid=299&pictureid=1407

Camping World has new ones for a bit over $100 but We have found that (even if painted) these covers on our 14 yr old Motorhome only last a year or 2 in the SW before becoming brittle and breaking apart. Our latest experiment was to get 2 new ones and have both Line-X'ed to match the color of the coach. Not cheap since the Line-X application cost as much as the covers but if it extends the life 4 to 5 years, it will have paid for itself.

Good luck

finding a replacement cover may or may not be an easy task. When I needed to replace one on '84 Avion with original DuoTherm air (I forget the model #), I had to hunt high and low to find one that fit that particular model #. I finally found a place that referred me to another place that still had one in stock.

Best of luck in your hunt.

Edit to add - a quick google of old duotherm shroud revealed several that look like the right ones (with grey band around bottom and some from a place that sells replacements that don't have the grey band but do have the needed height)

Max-Aire manufactures replacement shrouds for Dometic, Accel-air and Duo-therm air conditioners. They are usually stocked at Camping World and can be ordered from almost any RV dealer. If you're looking for a new, "improved" (so they claim) shroud, Max-Aire would be your best bet. Otherwise, it's a hit and miss trying to find a salvage unit or an overstocked shroud that "probably will fit" your model. Take your model number and serial number to CW, they have or can get you the shroud.

All great leads! Thanks, I'll have to do some more digging.
