Going Friday to look at a National Surf Side DS 29A What is the height at the edge of roof. One place I looked said 12 ft 1in wondering if this is the overall height of roof or top of AC unit. Wondering if it will fit under my carport.If it as good as it looks in photos will buy it any way worry about car port later.

I have an 2008 surfside and I know it will clear 12'6", I believe when I measured mine from the top of the A/C shroud it was 12'4" with the levelers down. Hope this helps.

That will work the car port is higher in the middle. It is almost 12 ft two ft out from wall. car port is 14 ft wide.

According to the spec sheet on my 2006 Surf Side, the height to the top of the AC is 11' 8".

Looks like you are 12' 1" total:

I have the exact one you are looking at. It is 12ft 2in to the top of the air conditioner. But If like mine Some one put any suspension aftermarket items on it could now be taller. I put air bags on the rear of mine to gain a little ground clearance to get in my driveway. So the rear air on mine is like 12ft 6in or so high now. Hope this helps. Alvin

Looked at motor home sounded good, out side looked like some one had used it for target practice with bb gun.Little dings every where, Some of them looked rusty could be where the framing is. Also a leak in roof near bath room sky light.Could have gotten it for $27000 but did not know of way to repair outside damage.
