Having owned a 2 TMs, a 1998 2720 with a side mount A/C and a 2003 2720SL with a top mount A/C, I can tell you that the top mount 13,500 BTU unit will cool the TM much faster and colder than a 8,000 - 10,000 BTU side mount unit. With the side mount I was never able to keep the inside cool enough in mid summer high humidity days here in the south. The top mount unit can freeze you out on any given day. I keep the temp knob set at 40-45%.

WBMiller3,
The water in the pan is retained for the slinger ring on the condenser fan. It throws the water onto the condenser coils so as to increase the A/C cooling efficiency by water evaporation.
