Hi,

I have an 183G Model
I wonder if the air conditioner should leak on top of the roof or does it have some built in pipe?
I don’t remember seeing the leaking water from the AC in the past but I may be wrong.

Thanks upfront,

If the humidity is fairly high, maybe above 30% or so, give or take, its normal to see condensate water dripping off the roof of your camper, coming from the A/C unit. This will sometimes cause some black streaks...and it's also kinda normal.

Hmmm....never occurred to me to want to try to remove or clean the faint and blended in streaks....cuz then I'd really have to wash and wax the entire camper...and that aint gonna happen....

Zita,

Big fan of LA Awesome at the Dollar store, use full strength on tough stains , dilute as necessary for cleaning. Great stuff for cleaning. Start every season with a clean, waxed RV, makes it easier.
