    Bill,

    I’m next door to you in Georgia and it’s never been an issue for me. It get’s in the 80’s this time of year inside the garage if I have the doors open and if I hadn’t insulated the whole barn, it would be much worse. I keep the bus roof vent open, crack a few windows and leave a fan running inside at all times to move air around. I’ve been out there all day today and this morning when I opened up, it was 75 inside.

    What are your concerns about heat and the bus?

    I seriously doubt if temperatures we can function in are damaging to the coach. If the battery charge voltages are temperature adjusted or set to the low side I suspect they are OK. I would be concerned about damage to materials and adhesives in the interior if the coach were out in the sun and it was 100 plus outdoors because then interior temps can quickly reach excessive levels. But in a covered shelter I doubt if there are any concerns.

    Perhaps any converters or service shops on here want to add to this?
