We stay at a lot of 30 amp sites so there are times when we can't really crank up both.

Would there be any reason why I can't just swap the front unit out directly for a 15k unit? Everything I've read says it's as easy as a few bolts, a pigtail electrical harness, and some dicor when installing the new one. Anything else? The 50 amp service should be more than adequate to deal with it shouldn't it? Both units are on their own 20 amp breaker so the front circuit should be fine.

Thanks!!
It is easy to swap out, 4 bolts hold it down. I have a question though, is your unit already a 50 amp? Did it come with 2 AC's or you installed the second? Edit: I found that you're coach has that option now.
The 15K would run fine on a 20 amp circuit. I installed a second air on mine and put it on a 20 amp circuit no problems.
