I have a MacGregor 22 to go with my potter 15. In west Texas, it is dry
enough that all you have to do is move air to stay cool. However, we go to
the coast and it is way to sauna like for comfort. I went to the RV store
for a few parts and noticed they had replacement ac for popup campers. I
will have to measure, but the opening they sit upon is very similar in
dimensions to the front hatch of the p19 and the macgregor22. These are
downdraft and not sidedraft units and are quite light. I am looking for a
wrecked RV to see if I can pick up one cheap. Otherwise, they are about 4
times as expensive as the window unit.
Cheers,
Richard in Lubbock
