Installing AC

Post by DownEast2 »

I hope someone can help answer a couple of questions for me.
I have a 2001 28TE and I'm starting to install AC. It looks like a few items were installed from the factory. There is a through hull and valve in the stern and there is a power cord under the V bunk and a breaker installed.
My questions are I'm not sure how to get the water line from the stern to the bow and there is a second pair if wires tie wrapped with the power wire and I don't know where it goes.
Can anyone answer these questions for me?
Thanks in advance.

Mine went thru the stbd side seat and under the bathroom floor. You are only running the supply water from the stern. One duct went that way and was cut into the vertical surface of the seat base facing the head. The other went behind the fridge and blew into the berth. The second set of wires are for the pump in the stern.

Thanks, I didn't know I could get under the floor in the head, I'll check that out. I'm sure the second pair of wires is for the pump, I just don't see them anywhere.
Thank you for the information about the air supply too.
