Mid-bunk AC possible solution

[mmilburne]

Today I installed a Raxial S4 inline duct fan on my 2018 Cougar 359mbi to help cool the mid-bunk room. The fan adds an additional 106 cfm's to the room. See photos and video.

MIC,

Installing this took about 30 minutes.
1. Remove the panel in the loft area by removing two screws. This will expose the duct.
2. Remove duct from register to mid bunk room.
3. Cut two 5" 4" metal duct pieces. These will be used as sleeves to connect fan
4. Install one sleeve over the duct register and secure (I used HVAC tape and screws.
5. Install fan same method. (ensure fan direction)
6. secure 2nd 4" sleeve and secure.
7. Measure and cut existing duct and secure to the sleeve. Don't allow and bends will reduce airflow.
8. Go into mid bunk. open the cabinet door closest to the entry door and using a 1/2" drill bit and drill up to the void space where you just installed the fan.
9. Drill a hole in the bottom of the cabinet
10. Fish the cable down through the holes.
11. Mount the switch on the wall below the cabinet
12. Plug into the electric receptacle.
13. Resecure wall panel in the loft
Job complete. Don't know why pics did not show up. You can email me at [email protected] and I can email you the pics of the install.
