Fridge approach recommendations
On your propane/electric RV Fridge ....you might consider junking it for the following reasons:
1. They do catch on fire! Google Dometic & Norcold Refrigerator Fires Explosions
2. RV fridges are not as good as domestics for cooling or freezing
3. They are expensive to replace and repair
>>>>>>
The obvious option is a domestic electric refrigerator which we did
Advantages
> Cost far less
> More reliable
> Far better cooling and freezing
Disadvantages,
> Works only when plugged into some form of electric source (campground hookup, solar, generator....)
Our Situation
We are fulltimers and stay in N. AZ in the summer and S. AZ in winter. 10 hour trips = no issue, fridge stays cool and ice does not melt. The install was easy.
Your Situation
If you will be be staying in remote areas or traveling long distances = solar and/or a generator.
We see many units a year with domestic fridges so it has and can be done
Recommend you do research here and check prior posts ...go to RV parks and talk to to those that only have domestic fridges, Google the approaches = videos and finally stop at RV dealers
