Thor 24 ST Air Conditioner

The air conditioner doesn’t push air through the vents. Where do I start to correct?

Assuming the air conditioner is actually still operating normally (i.e., still cooling and blowing the air as it should), then you could start by removing the inside (ceiling) vent cover on the air conditioning unit and inspecting inside the ceiling space to ensure that no air baffles/structures have moved to either block ceiling vent ducts or to “short circuit” the air flow between hot and cold sides of the air conditioner.

Original or replacement A/C unit?

TheAC works fine. Just nothing through the vents. Thanks.

Attaching a bit of a long winded video on fixing the A/C ceiling plenum divider which fixes the "short circuit" of warm and cold air in the ceiling and can reduce the amount of air being forced through your ducts. Just gives you an idea of what the plenum typically looks like. I am not familiar with your coach though, so it may not match your situation. Did your A/C ducts work OK originally and now they don't? Do some ducts work OK and not others?

Did you figure anything out? We just got a 2016 24st, and it is hot in there

Ceiling vents or floor vents? Floor are heat only.

Plus, you have the sliding "dump valves" mounted on the front and rear cover plate, which when opened, sharply cuts down on what goes out to central vents.

These are the ceiling vents. The dump is on the ac unit. I’m going to try to reroute the air in the ac unit with foam board. Floor vents are normal floor vents. I’m glad there’re not blocked to
