I've been thinking about what kind of cooling system to install in my step-van build. Rooftop AC is expensive, I already own a household window AC but don't want it protruding from the sides, don't have enough space in the back to fit it, got to scheming up a complex contraption involving ducts and auxiliary fans... and had a lightbulb moment:
Since there will be a fully-insulated bulkhead between the back and the cab, why not install it in that wall, vented to the uninsulated cab? It'll make the cab hotter, but with its large windows and presence of an engine, it's already going to be a hellhole, so what's another few degrees?
Anyone see any drawbacks? Any other opinions?
