Adding AC

Does anyone know about how much it would cost for AS to add a second AC to our 2011 International? One AC just doesn't seem to cut it in the South during the summer.

Another option is Timeless Travel Trailers in Arvada, CO. When I discussed this with them they would have put the 2nd AC unit in on a separate 20A circuit with external receptacle that we could have plugged into the 110 circuit usually available or into a separate breakout box fed from the 50A power circuit providing one 30A and one 20A. So when needed we would have just plugged it in. There was no need to upgrade the whole trailer to 50A.

So if I was to add a second AC unit would that cause my 30 amp as to become a 50 amp as?

If you added the 2nd A/C as 2012FB noted, the second A/C would be on a separate circuit that plugged into the pedestal. You could then run both A/C's. If you only wanted to run one, don't plug in the other. I have seen this done with motor homes.
