Do you know what tomorrow is? In case you don't, the summer solstice arrives tomorrow morning. That means tomorrow is the first day of summer. This is the time when people are out vacationing and trying to find ways to cool off.
That includes RVers.
My motorhome has a roof air conditioner. For the most part, it works just fine. But a few times in Lake Havasu City, Arizona, it barely was able to keep the inside of the RV cool from the blistering heat (in excess of 110°).
Do It Yourself RV has some tips (ten of them) on how to beat the heat in your RV.

Below we have 10 tips to beat the heat. They’re simple, cheap, and low effort, so give them a try! Feel free to use your AC as much as you want, but just remember that these tips might help you become less dependent on this system.
