Smells bad. Parked in NW Arkansas humidity is in the mid 80s. Temp mid 80s. When I run the ac units to cool down it is pulling the gases from the vent tank into the coach.
Never have had an issue like this before. Any ideas on how to be able to run ac units and not get the smell?
Thanks in advance.
NO IT IS NOT.. The AC uses only Recirculated air. At least all the modern ones only use Recirculated. There used to be some older ones that had a Exhaust or fresh intake as an OPTION (You could turn it off) but I've not seen one of those... this century.
So there is no way it can draw outside odors, in.
NOTE: this is one of the "Don't use it" Scare tatics with the Gen-Turi Generator exhaust extension things and has been completly debunked in dozens of threads on that subject.
Now what can happen is stinky stuff can build up in the A/C after all if not running it is a warm and often moist environment perfect for Mold and Mildew. (The drip tray)
Might be a good idea to head up on the roof and pop the covers (Outer and on the condenser the inner) clean what you can clean Pay attention to the drip tray. also check the condenser for "Crud" on the "windward" side. On a Coleman that's the outside (no need to remove inner cover) on most others that's the fan side (You need to contort to inspect and uncover to clean)
ALso you could have the problem of dead things in air ducts. Rare but possible.
Home was where I park it. but alas the.
