2013 Thor ACE 30.1 Freon capacity

Does anyone know the freon capacity for a 2013 Thor Ace 30.1?
The sticker on the evap box is unreadable...

Update: I mean on the F53 chassis, not rooftop...

I am not sure the charge value is very readable on my 2013 ACE 30.1 either, but it looks like 1.75 pounds (picture attached). There is also a link I quickly found regarding Evans Tempcon recommended charge specs for various RV vehicles .....check the index for charge specs. I don't know how dated this document is or even if it is applicable to our coaches; just grabbed it for you. If you find out a confirmed alternate value post it. Good luck.

Thanks. I could only see the .75 on mine. All the F53 specs say 2.75. We charged mine to 1.75, but it doesn’t seem to be getting very cold….

We purchased our ACE new from the Dealer in 2012 and so far I have never had to touch our dash A/C . Looking at the Tempcon manual hyperlink, I see the 1.75 lb charge does not even show up for the F53 chassis selections and is low compared to what is specified. Not sure it is even the correct manual for our coach A/C fitment. It was the first manual I could find. You might try contacting Thor or Evans Tempcon directly to see if either can confirm the freon charge requirement for the 2012 build year (2013 coach). Maybe another ACE owner in another close by build year can advise what their evaporator box charge value is, just to see if there is a different value?

Yeah, I contacted Comfort Air, which replaced Evan’s TempCon, but haven’t received a call back from them. I’m putting the Ace up for sale, and wanted to make sure everything was up to par….

When properly charged, the low side with engine running should be between 20-30 and high side around 150
