Jim, I responded every way I know. I'm a professional repair and diagnostic tech. I'm assuming his model # has only 1 duct system in roof. 1 blower on each end. With 1 off, due to open vents, wouldn't it be normal to loose velocity as it vents out down the line? I don't have CFM data on the units. Unless he has a hole in his ducting, I believe WE have normal expectation of ops. Also common sense tells me the reason a front unit is installed is BECAUSE of weak flow from rear. The way I use mine in front only ops is, I cool down with both units. Max cooling with grille vents OPEN. Then when its reached I close and let system cycle. Typically late at night, kicked back I shut off rear unit to watch tv. Bed time, I shut off front and start the rear..I don't like being woke up when the bedroom unit comes on. My son likes WHITE noise so he leaves his on low fan and it cycles as needed. Also, These trailers arnt as well insulated as home. I would expect to use both units in the heat of the day.

One last thought, I'm not a grand design REP. I just modify-update and maintain my 29RS FW. I suggest contacting GD support. Ive had an issue with mine and it was resolved beyond my expectations! ( I was the second owner of a 2015) They are Great, and here for us!

An assumption in this discussion seems to be that the front AC has the same CFM capacity as the rear AC. It is likely a smaller unit and won't have the same ability to push air to the rear as the main unit has to push air to the front.

yup.assumption. my low profile unit is same btu and 4 inches shorter..blows had as hell. to assume, you would need the standatd unit same as rear in front for an apples to apples test. but by feel it blows the same in the rear of mine. I can feel it sitting on the couch..bearly..the same as rear to front...wish i had californa weather here!😂
