    🎥 IN THIS EPISODE → RV AC SILENCER: Simple Install & Test
    Today we are showing you how to install the RV silencer by Wacko in our Winnebago 24t. It will not only decrease or eliminate the noise produced by the RV AC but also improve airflow and filter the air MUCH better than the filter provided by the manufacturer.
    Every RV should come with a RV silencer by Wacko! It will change your RVing for the better! We can finally have a normal conversation instead of yelling!

    That was truly one of the best upgrades I ever made to my Mercedes-Benz Sprinter based RV (a Tiffin Wayfarer 24BW). Wife and I couldn't hear the TV even with the volume cranked up to the max before installing this device. After the install we could not only hear the TV at normal volume levels but could talk with each other without raising our voices. It's a great product!

    I want to thank you for putting up this video. When we saw it we instantly bought one from Amazon and installed it today which is 2 days later. We pulled up your video a couple times to make sure we did it right. You were right the instructions really sucked. With you making videos like this it sure makes our life easier. We full-time and are off-grid with 3,200 Watts but we have to have 20 days in campgrounds when we see our children in the city. It was a very loud 20 days with the air in the south. This should make it much easier when we leave in 2 weeks to go to North Carolina. Thank you again.

    Loved this video! Will definitely be putting this in our Winnebago View! Have already done it in our Keystone Toyhauler. Much much better airflow & yes quieter! I don’t t understand why the manufacturers don’t tape over all of those holes. We had SO much air leaking. We were losing so much cool air!!!
    Thanks for reminding us to take care of this
    in our “Little Mo!” ❤️👍😁

    Seems like a good mod. Anything that'll make the a/c more efficient and quieter is a plus.
    Although, after 49 years of marriage, I'm certain I don't want my wife hearing everything I say ! LOL

    Would love if you guys could get a decibel reader and do a before and after. Or at least show the before sound and after sound in an upcoming video so we could hear the difference back-to-back. I've never head of this brand of silencer before, just the RV Air Flow ones, so this was an interesting video.

    • @todayissomeday
      @todayissomeday  5 місяців тому

      The problem is the decibel reader wont tell the whole story although the app we used showed a huge decrease (90% decibel decrease but not sure how good the app really is). This modification also decreases frequency which makes a huge difference on the sound you hear. That can not be measured on the decibel reader.
      It is well worth the one time purchase!

    Serious question. In the master bedroom vent hood we removed it to find the ac ducts open and spilling air around the sky light vent area. We used thermal foam and tape to block it. It gaves us increased air to the two vents above the master bed. Was this a good move?

    • @todayissomeday
      @todayissomeday  5 місяців тому +1

      It is hard to say without know the system you have. However, if it works and you are getting good air flow that cools the room....sure.

  • @stevescott8491
    @stevescott8491 3 місяці тому +1

    This silencer is selling for $249 on Amazon. Another example of a company taking advantage of having "RV" in it's product description. This is a $20 piece of plastic and foam at most. Not that I wouldn't want one, but refuse to get ripped off just because I own an RV. It basically covers the intake and pulls air from opposite side making it quieter. Hopefully someone will make a more affordable version.

    @dme2453 5 місяців тому

    I’m going to look into getting this. I recently pulled my cover off to check the tape work and it was a disaster. Holes everywhere and they taped right over both ducts that feed the small roof vents. Explains why my AC only worked when dumping straight out of the cover. I fixed the tape up and it cools unbelievably well now. Just too noisy.

      They work great, especially if you can seal up the discharge side to the ductwork to avoid leaking into the ceiling. Plus is no longer leaks some air out the dumps when they are closed, so 100% of the cold air it pushed to the ducts.
