And MAJOR kudos for the videos. The one on the insulation inside confirmed we had a problem too, as the insulation board had dislodged at the top, allowing most of the cooled air to recycle into the return air. Once repositioned and duct taped, the a/c now has more airflow through the registers.

Cheers

Fan blade Install went well and is much better now. In Alabama now so will use the A/C lots. Thanks again for the video.

Before and After dB readings:

Roof Top Before: 76dB
Roof Top After: 70dB

28' Distance Before: 58dB
28' Distance After: 50dB

Thanks for video, we changed out fan blade today. Took longer to order than to install. Probably silly question, but does AC work when slides are in (travel position). With slides in, our AC goes on for a few minutes then shuts off. Seems logical that slides need to be out, but just checking.

A/C works either way. I have been running mine with the slides in. You just have less square footage to cool with the slides in so it stands to reason it would run less often.
