This is our 4-part series The year is An older RV (purchased used one year ago) developed a leak from the ceiling air conditioning unit and upon removing it, it was immediately evident as to what the problem was (first image). The reason may be that the side-to-side movement is the cause Two of the corners of the down bolts weren't tight enough). There is no doubt that the Steele gasket is superior to Everything went smoothly during installation As we cut into the old gasket residue from the A/C unit's underside, it turned out to be very hard work. The original backing blocks at the back were very thin foam, and the Steele blocks at the rear seemed maybe to Using an electric saw, I cut them down to about 2/3 thickness and attached them to the old blocks (2nd photo). Once the mounting bolts are tightened, it seems like the unit is well secured on the roof with no side movement There is a flex in the side. I will end on a high note, however There will be no more leaks. As a rule of thumb, this task does not exceed the capabilities of the average DIY-er A skill set of ers. This procedure does not require knowledge of electricity or air conditioning beyond "disconnect the power" and "unplug it". It only takes a few basic tools (such as a paint scraper, a scrubber sponge, and mineral spirits) and a plan to get the job done. It will be easier for you to fix things if you take pictures as you go. It is recommended to use work gloves for handling the A/C unit due to sharp corners (and some fiberglass in the baffles of the main duct) and to use nitrile or similar for handling The following are tips 1 and 2 The front of the main square shroud should be marked when you remove it from the ceiling of the RV (a bit of tape or permanent marker will work). When I first got it back on I reversed it 180 degrees and the holes in it TIP 2 "This is a good way to start. " The old gasket must have little white compression marks (right-handed The rubber or foam that is between the gasket and the air conditioner's body). Save the pieces and reinstall them You can use them both at the same time. By checking their position as you tighten the corner bolts, you can see how much fuel has been compressed. There are some A/C manufacturers that specify a bolt torque setting. Using that instead is recommended if yours does. As far as I know, there were no torque values listed in the manual of my unit.
Rubing alcohol can be used as a solvent for removing adhesives for the best result! Once I installed the gasket and additional bracing material, I was able to quickly install the A/C unit so it was leak free soon after * Nota bene In this guide, it mentions one important point to keep the seal in place to maintain the seal, verify the A/C bolts are tight annually.
The AC leaking was a constant source of frustration for me The screws remained loose no matter how tight I tightened them, how I reseated them, or how I adjusted them. Among the many things it has going for it is its one-piece design and excellent The purpose of this review was to wait over a year You might as well spend a few extra bucks on a high-quality gasket if you're going to go through all that trouble to replace your AC.
This brand would have saved me money had I known about it before purchasing the one I purchased. The video on the RV was right, as I have seen it on a video. Do not waste your time on an AC roof gasket that is cheap. This is the one you're looking for. While this gasket is expensive, I would prefer to have one made of Steel gasket. I am only going to buy this Steele gasket from now on.
This product is very well constructed, and the shipping was far quicker than quoted. Steele Rubber Products always provides quality products, and this particular gasket is no different. I have gone out of my way to purchase Steele rubber whenever possible. This is the gasket you need if your roof top air conditioner is leaking!.
This is an awesome product. Highly recommend it to anyone with a rooftop A/C system.
The user interface is simple and intuitive.
