The Bus Project Part 4 - Rooftop AC Install

[MrPepsiman1985]

you should of just put the AC where the emergency exit things are on the top of the bus

@MrPepsiman1985 I was thinking about doing that, but it would have taken a lot more work to use the emergency exit hole. Roof vents for AC are 14 inches square. The emergency exit is about 24 inches square. I would have had to make a lot more bracing and would have had to weld in a new piece of sheet metal over the existing hole. In the future, I may still do that and then use the new hole for a vent. But at the time, I needed the AC in ASAP. It was very hot! :P Thanks!

Nice bus, but if I added AC I'd be reluctant to add a roof AC for height reasons. Just make sure you know the overall height of the bus with AC unit and keep it in mind :P

@mtownlobo I didn't want bus-type windows in it so I skinned over the openings with sheetmetal. Once I get the interior figured out a little more, I'll be installing tinted RV-type windows, probably four of them. Thanks!

@ProjectOpiateX Gotcha! You picked an exterior color yet?
