Our unit is about 38', same size as the 2009 MS, we traded. 2 were fine on our 2006 ES, but the 2009 did struggle sometimes in treeless 100+ d areas. Then when we heard the new EPA approved Freon didn't work quite the same, we decided to go with dealer recommendation and went all 3-15k.

We were especially thankful for all 3 when we returned to NM in July and turned everything on. Within hours, the 2-LR units quit cooling. Trying to find an RV Tech was pretty difficult, but finally found one who verified we needed 2 new units.

Within 5 days, the BR blew up, too. One 10,000BTU portable LG AC from Home Depot barely kept it under 85d.

All 3 (different style inside) were replaced under warranty during the next week at our dealer. Don't know how long it would have taken if we had tried to get them replaced in Albuquerque.

Haven't have any problem keeping cool the last couple of months in SE OK 100d days.
