Just in time for summer: we installed a Pioneer mini-split A/C unit on our Skoolie! Putting an A/C on a rolling vehicle presented some unique challenges that probably wouldn't happen on a home installation. Mike had to figure out a way to pass all the tubes and wiring through the outer skin of the bus and make it all completely water-tight. He had to use brass fittings to make right angles in tight areas that would have kinked the copper tubing. And of course, we also had to build the entire upper front section of the bus to install the interior part of the air conditioning unit.

About Us:
Hi! We are Mike & Kerry, the proud owners of a 1996 Bluebird rear engine (pusher), 40' school bus! We named her Bussy McBusface in honor of the RRS Boaty McBoatface travesty.
We're building a Tiny-Home-in-a-Bus for full-time living in the most adventure-friendly way possible! In other words, Bussy will not be parked in our driveway, waiting for weekend or holiday getaways... when we finish the build, we'll be packing everything we're keeping into the bus and driving away from this old house forever!
We plan to be boondocking the majority of the time, so you'll see that reflected in our choices throughout the build (100 gallon water tank, composting toilet, solar power system, etc). We'd love to have you stick around and follow us on our journey, throughout the Skoolie Build, and to Infinite Adventures Beyond!
Mike & Kerry
