Installing 2nd AC

My Eagle HT is 50 amp prewired with one AC. Has anyone installed the second AC in the bedroom themselves? Just wondering the level of difficulty and what issues you may have experienced. What type of AC did you install?

I have never done it but from what I hear it not too bad, but I guess maybe youtube is your best friend.

Installing AC very easy itself. AC is heavy to get to roof but overall not impossible. Wiring 120 v is already present once you remove the trim around vent. There will be metal box with white/black/white-green wire present. Wire to AC and mount metal box in opening on return air side. A metal frame with air divider then bolts up to bottom of AC with either 8 or 11 inch bolts to secure unit to roof. Depending if ducted or not may change the metal frame a bit and you will need to trim and seal up the air divider. I am currently installing a Dometic Penguin 2 low profile and I am just finding out the AC unit requires a 12 volt line as well as the 120v connections.
Hands down the biggest pain in the ass is removing all the sealant from the roof once vent is removed. I used hair dryer to heat it up and slowly work with thumb to remove 1/2 inch at a time.
