Tips for correct cooling

Cooling - the right way to do it

There are a number of ways in which you can significantly improve the performance of your air conditioning unit in a caravan or

motor home. Simply follow the following tips and advice to help you keep your cool when the heat is on.

As far as possible, park your vehicle in the shade - the higher the level of insolation, the hotter it gets inside the

vehicle. Air the vehicle thoroughly before switching on the air conditioning unit - this will cool the living area down even

more quickly.

When attaching skirts or similar to the vehicle, ensure that there are enough openings to allow the air to circulate

properly - an accumulation of air underneath the vehicle prevents the warm exhaust air from moving away and

reduces the cooling power.

Ease the situation by using blinds to provide shade. The use of a flysheet, window coatings and protective sheets also

reduces heat radiation - because direct insolation via skylights and windows can also increase the temperature.

Clean your roof regularly - because dirty roofs have a tendency to heat up more.

Close the doors and windows when running your air conditioning unit - because open doors or windows make proper

cooling impossible.

Keep the difference between the internal and external temperatures reasonable in terms of the settings you make. The

circulated air is cleaned and dried during operation. By drying the hot and humid air, a pleasant climate can be created

even when the difference in temperature is only slight - excessive differences in temperature between "inside" and

"outside" are unpleasant and can even lead to colds.
