My roof top units on my 2002 Intrigue do not have plumbed drains. what are my options for installing drains?

There really isn't any options other than a pan under the a/c unit. With the pan, you could run the drain off to the side of the coach which would look bad.
To run a drain in the roof would be a major undertaking just because of the way the roof is built. There are metal stringers that you would have to know the location of and have a means to get through them. Then you would have to go down through some wall structure and have to deal with the metal tubes there also.

Earl,

I used preformed adhesive gutter to channel water off the coach at a place where I wanted it to go, not on my slide top awnning covers. I purchased the gutter material on-line. It has worked for me and did not cost much.

Thanks,

You brought up a good thought! On my 99 Allure the water just drains on the roof. Keep it simple! I just orderd from Dometic two cooling fan bushing kits, Rubber Grommets, Metel sleeves and lock nuts, Each kit was 6 dollars and change plus min. shipment fee of 15 dollars. The new grommets now installed the roof A/C are so quiet now you can hardly hear them. The old 11 year old grommets are rotted putting the fan motor on the mounting brackets and it sounded like a frieght train. Easy to teplace too. If you do this have your A/C Model and S/N for the dometic rep. your Dometic paperwork has a toll free phone number. Im not a fan of drain tubes but great question. Ken 99 Allure 30356
