It’s been too cold to try my new AC but I ran the heat strip the other day and I really like it’s gentle heat and very low fan speed. I think it’ll be excellent for autumn sleeping. Hope you long enjoy the fruit of your hard work.
I have a pole barn I built for the RV, you can see it in the pic of the A/C on the roof. I backed the RV out of the barn, used a block and tackle from the peak to hoist the A/C into the air, pulled the RV back in under the hanging A/C, and then lowered it to the roof. In reality, I left it on some cross beams for about 10 days because we had a trip planned between when it arrived and when I had time to install it.
