a room about 15' by 15' with an 8' ceiling or a Yugo with the windows closed. except for the Yugo, It depends on where you are and how well the room is insulated. there is a little calculator at this site or search BTU calculators on the web. good luck with that.

Since you say the place cools rapidly when the sun goes down, apparently the insulation in inadequate and the mobile home construction is conducting all the sun's radiant heat. No way of knowing if there is any practical way to combat that (as I'm sure there is not airspace in your ceiling or room to add more insulation) . . . . about all that I can imagine would help is what is done on boats: a white canvas (or substitute) sunshield erected a couple feet over the mobile home's roof to reflect the sunlight, with room for air to circulate beneath.

Actually an 8000 BTU unit will effectively cool a small bedroom, maybe 10x10 or 10x12, approx. 120 sq. ft. Trying to cool a much larger area will result in the unit running much more than it's meant to and wearing out quicker.

Depends where you are, will cover a lot more in Seattle than Death Valley but generally it will do one moderate sized room.

Hot climate, 100 sq. ft per ton. 4 ton = 400 sq. ft. Mild climate, 120 to 150 sq. ft. per ton.
