I looked around the net but can't find the specs for the freon level for a 2009 UFO.

Well ended up being a mute point appears the AC compressor is shot, tech ran dye thru it today and its spraying freon all over the unit.

I have RV shop checking to see if its covered under warranty, Had the unit less than a year so have my figures crossed.

Will keep it in mind, I have call into service center who has done my other WH repairs, I would also assume it will be covered under warranty, just wished it could be taken care of quickly these trips are a bit warm during the day with no dash air.

Of course this weekend had another suprise, had water in my heater vents, I think I narrowed it down to leak around the shower stall drain which is right above the duct, got it all dryed out, it appears that they failed to put any type of gasket on back side of drain and plubers pudding just didn't hold up around the top, spoke to home builder who gave some hints to try on the reinstall and going to add a drip pan so I can keep a eye on it over the next few trips.

Still waiting on call on AC, But did get some work done on the leak. Discovered one thing regular plumbers pudding is not designed for RV showers, But actually went a different direction and used to rubber type gaskets to maek seal goinf to see how it holds up to th flex that more or less built into the design.

Well guess the summer is not a good time to have A/C go out, did have dye ran thru system and it's all over the compressor.

Workhorse did let the service center know that if it is a hose its not covered if it is the compressor it is, the trick now is actually getting it in for service, I really don't like leaving my unit so normally just dro off when I know it won't set for days on end, scheduled a day to have it dropped off to have it looked at so they can tell for themselfs what I was already charged 120.00 on my own that its the compressor, guess what they wanted me to leave it and they might be able to look at it in a week or so, if tryed to convince them to put the googles on with uv light and you could see the dye.

So now waiting on call so I can drop of to have it looked at same day, I do have two other service centers local, one I would never use and I have a call into the other which is a Chevy Dealer.
