Hi All, I’m looking into purchasing a flatbed Grandby for my family of four. My main concern is the lack of an air conditioning option for the flatbed models. I see Dometic makes a new 12v option that is made to run off battery power. One that weighs 50lbs. and has 4,094 BTU’s and one that weights 70lbs. with 6,824 BTU’s. My first question is it seems like the roof should be able to handle the weight? I’m not planning to carry anything else on the roof besides the solar panels. Second would be, if it is manageable to install the rooftop ac would the 4,000 BTU’s or even the 6,800 be enough to make it worth the purchase, install and added weight ?? Thanks.
