Any idea where I should look to find the BTUs of my AC? Behind the intake cover inside and looking through the side vents on top are wiring diagrams, but no mention of BTUs or a model number. I found a brochure online for the year after my trailer and the only AC mentioned is 13.5k BTU. I've read in a few places that most RVs can only stay about 20F below outside temps, which is about what I manage in my trailer. I do have all the windows Reflectix'd, though, so I should be doing a little better...

I have no shade where I'm parked, but the awning is on the south side of the trailer. It makes a noticeable difference in how well the AC keeps up in the heat of the day. Unfortunately, its enemy, wind, is pretty common here and it can pick up quick. I only have it out when I'm home and the wind is a breeze or slower.
