So what model Norcold is in my rig? I’m hoping it’s not the much lamented 2118.
I stay in very hot temps at times, recently in Tucson with 58 days this summer over 100F.
Any ideas to keep my fridge cold during days like that?
Does AC work better than propane to for this absorption fridge?
Most likely a version of the 1210. They work OK. in 100 degree days the Fridge stays in the low 40's and freeze in the low 30's. Ice stays frozen. Better than some of the other models. It should have 4 fans on the top vent. I've seen people put a standing room fan on the bottom vent As far as the AC. It takes hours to get the rig to the high 70's. Then they just stay running. Assuming your intake/supply is properly sealed it's works as good as it's going to. I changed all the vents in my to the old style louvered. It helps. At least I can feel air movement.
