Someone may have already covered this, but I discovered that if the unit isn't
tilted JUST right (toward the outside so water won't come in the bus) it won't
cool right.
I had the unit tilted too much toward the outside of the bus...it ran but did
not cool at all...I thought the A/C unit was bad. Kevin Evans (Kaveman on the
aircoolers.org site) set me straight. One slight adjustment and it was in the
60's in the bus!
