Today's Progress

Today we got the air conditioner secured. We put a "frame" inside the walls that was just right for the air conditioner. We screwed the inside wall to the frame, the outside wall to the frame and then the air conditioner to a small piece of wood the perfect size and into the frame in between the walls. This air conditioner is on the side of the camper. It does not hang out anymore than my mirrors do on my van and this is because of the unit I chose. I specifically picked this one so that most of the unit would be inside the camper and because it blows air UP instead of just straight across the floor.
This is why this works for us. I also have seen other pictures of a camper (hard sided) that has an air conditioner just like this one on the side of their camper and it worked as well for them. Here are the pictures of today's progress.

Putting in the frame
Screwing it in from the inside.
Screwing it from the outside now..
Screwing it down to the frame on the top too.
We thought about putting in the foam.. but it didn't fit that well...
So we put the black rubber tape on it like we used on the outside.
Shadow loving the camper life.
Making up Jamie's bed, getting ready to put the camper down.
The outside of the camper with the air and rubber tape on the outside. This will protect it from rain getting inside at all!
