I think you are probably right and I certainly hope you are because a 100 or so pounds up there can destroy your roof if it isn't. It will be like someone jumping up and down on the roof thousands of times when you are traveling on vacation. The total weight only contacts a 14 x 14 area. Remember it is not only the static weight but the wind that it catches at speed and the low hanging branches you pull under.

I had roofing leak on my 1975 30' prowler at the roof mounted a/c and I pulled it out and pulled the ceiling down to repair. It was supported by 2"x 2" support beams, and a 2'x 4' sheet of 3/4" plywood mounted on top of support beams with a 14" x 14" hole cut out for the unit. It is a small coleman unit. Not sure if this helps but maybe it will help someone wanting to mount one on roof.

Anybody with a larger trailer have a roof top unit? If so what brand is it? I also just noticed the trailer on the forum logo has a roof top a/c... No, just a disproportionate vent.
