The front part of my mobile home stays cold while the back part gets too hot to sit in. Why is this happening?
You're getting the air on the front but the crossover duct to go to the second track is not connected or has a hole in it not getting the air where it needs to go. So that's why you're hotter in that side of the house versus the other side. Also we do a lot of mobile homes is and I talked to a contractor last week about this because he was not aware you could do it is we do what we call four point tires high end so we replace we leave the tracks in the duct because obviously you can't you know mess that up. But we put in two boxes on each track so you have four points and then we tie it in so you have better airflow. But to answer that question it's probably a crossover duct problem which we can handle and look at.
