RV AC repair starts with what the air conditioner is doing. It may blow warm air, freeze up, trip the breaker or refuse to start. We find the cause, then put the quote for the repair in writing. In a Texas summer, a dead AC is our most common urgent call.
We work on the rooftop unit, the ceiling assembly inside, the control board and the wall thermostat. The service call comes to the RV at an RV park, a campground, a storage lot or your driveway. You can also bring it to our San Marcos shop. This work is part of our mobile RV repair in San Marcos and the towns around it.
Tell us about your RV, what is wrong and where it is parked. We diagnose the problem and put the repair quote in writing.
One rooftop AC maker's manual gives a simple check. As a general rule, the air coming out runs 15 to 20 degrees cooler than the air going in. At 80 degrees going in, that means 60 to 65 coming out. When that drop holds, the manual says the unit is working properly.
When the cooling falls short, another maker's troubleshooting chart starts with the filters. A clogged filter cuts the airflow and can ice up the cooling coil. Running the AC with no filter lets lint and grease build up on the coil itself.
Past the filters, a third maker's chart lists a damaged indoor or outdoor fan. It also lists leaves and dirt blocking the grilles on the rooftop unit. We test the rooftop unit and the ceiling assembly, then put the fix in the written quote.
NOAA's 1991 to 2020 climate normals put the average August high in San Marcos near 97 degrees. The city averages about 117 days a year at 90 degrees or hotter. September still averages about 19 of those days, so the AC season runs through September.
One maker's manual uses 80 degrees as the normal target inside an RV. If the unit holds its 15 to 20 degree drop but the RV stays hot, the manual blames heat gain. Direct sun and big windows both add heat. Shade and shut doors help, and another maker suggests starting the AC early in the morning on the hottest days.
On a typical summer night here, the low still falls below 75 degrees. NOAA's normal low is about 73 degrees in July and 74 in August. One manual warns that below 75 outside, a thermostat set to its coldest can ice up the coil. It says to set the thermostat near the middle overnight.
When a rooftop unit is done, we replace it. The written quote covers the new unit and the install before any work starts. Once you say yes, we order the unit and set a time to put it in.
A new unit has to fit the RV. Makers' installation guides set the unit on a gasket over a square roof hole about 14 inches across. The roof has to carry the weight, about 86 pounds for one maker's unit. One spec sheet sizes a 13,500 BTU unit for a 23-foot RV and 15,500 BTU for 31 feet.
One maker's guide has the bolts drawn down until the gasket is squeezed to about half its height. It warns that sliding the unit across the roof can damage the gasket and cause leaks. Water around an older unit can also come from the roof, which is RV roof repair work.

Josh replaced the a/c and heater control board in my travel trailer he did an awesome job I highly recommend him
We discovered just 4 days before our Thanksgiving trip that our RV slide-out wasn’t working. We contacted Josh, and he came out the very same day to diagnose the issue. He quickly ordered the necessary parts and managed to get everything repaired in time for our trip. Josh was professional, efficient, and highly communicative throughout the entire process, keeping us informed every step of the way. His pricing is very reasonable, and we truly appreciate the extra effort he put in to ensure we were able to leave on time. Highly recommend his RV repair services!
Josh and his team are amazing. He replaced my roof on my wildcat 5th wheel. And once it rained he returned twice to assess any leaks and concerns. He’s my repair guy now! Thank you Josh!!!!
