We went camping this weekend to St. Augustine, Florida in our Slingshot 21FD and as luck would have it the weather got ugly. We've owned this TT for 2 years now and never had an issue, but this time we got hit with a severe thunderstorm at 4 AM and water started flowing from the ceiling. The water was actually coming in through the speaker hole in the ceiling just behind the AC unit. I've inspected the roof and AC unit and didn't see any issues but it's impossible to inspect the seal between the unit and the roof without removing the AC itself. As far as I can tell, the only opening between inside and out is the condensation drain area from the drip pan. I'm starting to wonder if the rain/wind was so strong that it pushed the water back up into the unit through the condensation drain path, but then why didn't the water flow from the AC unit itself rather than behind it via the speaker hole in the ceiling? Does anyone else out there have an experience with this same issue or know AC units well enough to offer up a possible diagnosis?
