    Ok folks, so the question is to install habitation Air Con or not?

    Some 'facts' to add to the equation... We would expect to go to France (south of) each year for 3-4 weeks. All going well, we also expect to hold the camper at least ten years. Yes I know that is a long time and the kids will get bigger etc but right now that is our best guess. We put a lot of time into thinking about our camper and were are confident that we have chosen well :rolleyes:

    Your thoughts/experiences please.

    During a heatwave in France a few years ago it got to high 30's and I would have paid any money for air conditioning. Since then I haven't experienced the same temperatures over there. If you plan to keep the MH and you have the cash then I'd say go for it.
    I've considered a portable 12000btu unit that consumes about 1kwh but the only problem is finding the extra storage space for it. There's a cool looking one on ebay at the moment for around £400 + p&p which night be worth looking at, Cools 2,400BTUs and consumes about 350watts.
    If I had the cash however I'd install the proper one.

    I need to do more research on them - at present I have just looked at the Domestic range as these seem to be one of the most popular.

    Hmmm, don't like the sound of that (if you'll pardon the pun). Any such thing as a quiet one? Or at least an acceptable level of noise.
