Here's a picture of the compressor tag on my front one that I had Newell replace. You should be able to find it using that number. I think I found one at Johnstone but had Newell do it. My local a/c guy quoted a price (over the phone) that was higher than Newell.

does anyone know how much r22 there is in a unit when you replace the compressor and start it up?

Jimmy was/is big help! How cool is it to live 100' from another Guru...let me tell you 'GREAT' !
His expertise and confidence to work on anything was inspiring...we plan on keeping our coach for some time, so I will be looking at a total 'refresh' on this rear dual unit. I will be taking images of the bay and plenum...if you have a 10+ year old coach (18yr old for us) you will be very surprised about the potential need to pull a unit and clean both coils sets and do an overall health check.

We are thinking about adding a roof air or two, Steve makes a great case for that going forward...but timing/resources available now, has us planning the rear unit refresh and will make a call on front unit after rear is working at 100%.

Thanks to all that have added input and support.

Front unit is not working. It stopped 1st...

Decided to divide and conquer when rear unit went down too...getting it 100% makes coach livable and rear unit viable long term...plus design of front unit's coils facing front of coach to catch all generator and road grime not best practice...I am considering Steve's idea of putting 1-2 roof airs toward front half of coach at Newell south in W. Monroe...later in year...that is if Steve will have us...Lol

Jeff, I now have 4 roof airs and have had trouble with two. Mine are ducted and are still noisy. I and wife, after having both types still prefer the basement airs. I would consider keeping the basement units going and you do have spares. I think the basement airs are the way to go. The slides are what make the roof airs necessary. Maybe some others will give their opinions. Hope you get it working.[/code]

Ron I respectfully disagree, loss of storage bays difficulty of service and issues with boards. I agree roof airs are noisier but ease of maintanace replacement and reliability I like the roof airs and we both have owned 422.. Lol
