There's three zone AC/HEAT for climate control throughout, with each unit having a Dehumidifying cycle in addition to reverse cycle AC/HEAT units controlled by digital controls in each area, along with a NEW AC circulation pump in 2023. Her owners have always kept her with AC, HEAT, or dehumidifiers running to ensure she stays fresh from odors, flawless cabinetry finishes, etc. Her current owners rebuilt Master & Guest head vacu-flush pumps with new duckbills in 2021, as well as replaced both Master & Guest head vacuum lines in 2022.
