Passport 199ML air conditioner question
Howdy. I've never owned an RV before and am considering purchasing a new Passport 199ML. I understand the 199ML comes with a 13,500 BTU air conditioner by default. However I see a 15,000 BTUs is an optional upgrade.
One the one hand I see lots of threads in this forum about folks upgrading their AC units, adding second AC units, etc. That would lead me to believe this is a worthwhile one-time investment. On the other hand: 1) all of those posts are for larger units (the 199ML is small), and 2) I know from my father (now deceased) who used to be an HVAC tech that having too powerful of an AC unit is actually counterproductive (specifically, it blasts a lot of cold air out very quickly, short-cycles, and does not time to perform its necessary de-humidification function).
Does anyone have any experience with this model and these ACs, and can advise me on what to purchase?
Thanks much,
Ray
