Ran it in the corner down the closet through the the floor which is right above the sewer/ water pump compartment is. I put a plug on it to be able to plug into a campground pedestal separately or plug into a receptacle I wired into the breaker panel in the coach. Hardest part was getting it up on the roof. I used an extension ladder and slid it up on the roof by using a rope by myself.
I was glad to have it while down in the Keys this past January.
Thank you! Very helpful. A few questions if you don't mind.
1. Is there any reason you chose the Coleman over another brand/model, like say the Atwood Aircommand that I've read about?
2. Did the vent fan already have proper framing to support it? And was the vent hole already the exact size needed?
3. Did you use something like a typical 12/2 wire to the junction box and then use a thick outdoor type flexible cord to run to the pedestal to plug in?
Thanks
