Older RoadTrek, but new to me. Question..A/C built into top rear of unit. I know, that in this hot humid weather, it has to be discharging a goodly amount of condensation (water), but I can find no discharge point. No drips & no wet spots anywhere to be found. I am wondering where it goes, and hope that it is not going to some concealed area inside the coach that would cause a rot problem.
Anybody know?

We had the same question. Somehow, it channels down and out of the lower part of the van. There is no tube or drainspot or anything.


I downsized my rig to fit my dog.

I dunno the answer, but Roadtrek has used the '210' designation twice, for somewhat different models. It'll help someone to answer you with less risk of confusion if you tell us which year. The first ones used a really long full-bodied Chevy G van. The newer ones use a mostly-fiberglass body on a cut-down & modified Chevy Express van.

Appreciate your comments. Onw would think, that there would be a wet spot somewhere beneath the coach if it was draining down.

It is a 1996 210 popular.

On our 2000 Popular 200, the water collects in a pan under the A/C. If it overflows, the water goes to the corner posts, until it is below the tail lights. At that point, it collects in a sink like cavity, which drains through a tube to the underside of the RV.

The tail lights are not water tight, and rain water also collects in the same cavity for drainage.

I suspect that our rigs are similar as to how they drain.
