lots of discussion on the forum about basement airs.
i have two of the double compressor sci units in m 02. we rebuilt my boards with new relays about 8 or 9 years ago (thanks russ).
they have worked just fine. downsides are they take up chunks of two bays. and in my estimation are a little louder inside than the ducted roof airs. upside.....my ceiling heights are higher in places because there are no ducts running in the ceiling.
to get roof airs i think you have to step up a year or two after my 02 (except for the rare ones with roof airs and slides earlier than mine)
other upside to roof airs is they are cheap to buy and easy to replace if needed.
bottom line would i refuse to buy a coach that i like because of basement airs? no
