Although ducting is a geat idea ,
you might get away with out some .
We use the orig 06 condenser compartment as the Dual basement bay.
The delivery air , all of it ,
blows up under the table in the main salon.
It blasts up to the overhead , if the table leaves are closed.
The coach is most likely to be used foward , either driving , or coolkin eating , sitting arround , during the day.
The daytime is the time you need max AC as the insolation is so high .
In the evening , with the sun down , cooling loads , even if its hot , is easy,,one unit.
WE only use about 10 ft of the floor duct , but in a reverse manner.
The floor duct is connected to the cieling return from as high as is practical & easy to hide .
This recirculates the air ,
and you MUST ,
as an AC may only cool the air 15 deg on a pass,
if its 105 and the sun is out ,
you will definatly want a couple of air passes.
With stock windows and stock insulation ,
having the 2 units blow only foward ,
the max air avil is where its needed durin daylight
And as the air delivery ,AC unit and return are foward ,
less noise comes back to the sleeping area , when not too much cool is needed.
