The one on the trailer. Once the outside temp cooled down, in the evening,
the AC ran fine. But during the hottest part of the day, the thing would
trip the circuit breaker no matter how we adjusted the settings. I found a
web site, so I'll do a little research.

My opinions.
#1 weak breaker, but doubtful.

#2 defective fan that "drags" a bit too much, but doubtful

#3, compressor is having to work extended time due to higher temps.
Very possible.

#4 not recirculating inside air because the fresh air vent is open
( or at least not closing) drawing moisture causing the evaporator
coil to frost over especially in high humidity.

#5 it could be a clogged filter, AND/OR clogged condenser coil. That
is if it is a used unit.

#6 too much freon. If it's been recharged in the past, sometimes they
cram too much freon into the thing, because they want it to be colder
than cold. But what happens is it over loads the compressor

Like previously mentioned, if it's under warranty then nit-pick them
to death until they fix it.

Thanks Tim. Lots of possibilities, but some of them I can check. I'll do so
tomorrow.

Thanks again.
