A heating and air-conditioning system has an auxiliary engine for heating and
cooling
of a vehicle while the primary engine of the vehicle is not operating. The vehicle
has a sleeper compartment with a sleeper compartment air conditioning unit powered
by the main engine. An auxiliary air conditioning system located exterior of the
sleeper compartment is powered by the auxiliary engine. An auxiliary supply duct
extends into the sleeper compartment and joins the duct of the sleeper compartment
air conditioning unit. A valve operated by air pressure blocks air flow from the
sleeper compartment air conditioning unit into the auxiliary duct while in the
main position. In the auxiliary position, the valve blocks air flow from the auxiliary
duct into the sleeper compartment air conditioning unit.
