Has anyone installed a window AC in their foamy and if so what type of bracing did you use? I’m thinking a tiny 5k btu unit on my future truck camper build I just can’t decide on placement and how sturdy the framing needs to be

Truck camper? You got my attention! Love to see your design.

There's an upcoming technology you may wish to dig into a bit. Comes basically from heat reflecting paint (and that's loosely stated). If I ws to do AC, I'd chase this. I will chase this for home AC.

This dude has taken this tech another step to make it affordable. Put it on a tear / small camper? Ya!



If you're a techie, watch this guy but his process is a bit more complicated.
Nighthawk refers to him a couple times as an expert in emerging fields and a great tester.
He also has a pretty nice still build!! But I digress




My apologies to the individual that first posted this AC paint and not mentioning your name. I hope you see this and watch what Nighthawk has taken it to.
