Nick are you using the OTR A/C in your coach? If so is it 134a..and what is involved in converting to it?

Hi James,

Welcome!

Yes, I have and use well my otr a/c.  It's not too hard to convert. It involves replacing the compressor oil, replacing the liquid line dryer, and in some cases

the expantion valve. Then of course, evacuate the system and dump about 15lbs of R-134A in it.

Let me know if I answered all your questions
