How to remove rv fridge Videos

+Jodi Richards yes, fit out the door no problem

Glad you found it useful! Good luck with your repair!

This would be great if he (the Geek) would keep his camera on the subject AND KEEP HIS ARMS OUT OF THE WAY OF THE CAMERA AND NOT SING HIS STUPID INANE THEME SONG.!

Cool.:) I can't wait to see the motorhome after your done with it..I bet it will look brand new.:)

Just what I needed to see! So glad you made this video!!! Many, many, many thanks!!!

Ha! I don't know about brand new.. Maybe it'll look it's from 1997 instead of 1985. :)

Thanks Brother! Waiting some good weather.. Lots to do! Love you Bro!

Nice job, moving right along Bro!! Love you man!

Painting it hammered metal too?

.:)

+Vito A The insulation just keeps it snug on each side, the back and top are all open all the way up through the roof vents.

Hi Pat,Great idea.  We are going to do that on our next trip next week.  Thanks, Debbie

+Debbie Ainolhayat Hello Debbie, The refrigerators that I used were very large. If a smaller refrigerator is used, about 4.3 cu ft or less, the 120 volts amp draw is usually less than 2 amps, sometimes 1 amp. For a travel ,  trailer, I would use a similar set up as previously described. Mount an inverter on the vehicle battery and run a 14 gauge extension cord to the rear bumper of the vehicle. Run a 14 gauge extension cord from the refrigerator to the tongue of the trailer.  When the trailer is hooked up to the vehicle, plug the 2 cords together.  Raise the hood of the vehicle and switch on the inverter. When the trailer is disconnected from the vehicle, turn off the inverter, under the hood, and disconnect the 2 extension cords. Then disconnect the refrigerator from the inside portion of the extension cord and plug the refrigerator into a 120 volts wall plug and therefore, use shore power. The small amp draw of the refrigerator will not be enough to cause a problem with your 30 amps input. If you use a small amp draw refrigerator, a 400 watts inverter, on the vehicle battery, will provide about 3.5 amps of 120 AC volts, which will power the refrigerator while traveling. If you do not wish to have to remember to turn off/on the inverter each time, a simple disconnect can be a solenoid switch placed in the 12 volts line between the battery and the inverter. Activation for the solenoid can be provided by running a 12 volts line from the fuse box to the solenoid. The wire should be attached to spot that is only powered when the ignition switch is on. A continuous duty solenoid switch must be used. Surpluscenter.com has a 80 amps switch for about $10.00. Pat Courtney

Hi Pat,We have a travel trailer. I guess my question would be should I get one more 12V battery and an inverter  along with a transfer switch assigned only to the residential fridge?I am hearing good things about residential fridges.Thanks for your help.

+Debbie Ainolhayat  I have had 120 volts refrigerators in 5 motor homes. When traveling I plug the refrigerator into an extension cord that is plugged into an inverter which is attached to the vehicle battery (I have a transfer switch). The refrigerator stays cold and will make ice while traveling. The size of the inverter depends on the refrigerator Amps draw. Most such refrigerators (8 amps or less) will run on a 750 - 1000 watts inverter. The important part is to have a disconnect switch in one of the two  the 12 volts line going TO the inverter (or remember to turn off the inverter) , otherwise it will drain the vehicle battery when the vehicle is not running.

+Debbie Ainolhayat Our has been working just fine and they actually do not pull that much power so that should not be a concern. As far as long trips go it would be best to grab a battery and an inverter and just let it run while you are on the road. Dry ice would be fine also, anything over about 4 hours and things will start to thaw a bit in the freezer. Fridge stays pretty cool for 4-5 hours. Hope that helps and good luck!

+Expedition West Films (expwestfilms) Oh, that stinks but the good thing is now that I have this frig in here it is super easy to pull it out, unscrew a couple screws, unplug it, and then take it out. Good luck with yours, not fun getting the stock frig out!

+Shauna Falk Glad could help with the first part at least! Here is the same model on Amazon but not sure about shipping where you are. - //amzn.to/1Nb4dbf

+aguyandhiscomputer lol, exactly:) 

Meh, how else you gonna grab a drink while in the bathroom?

+ycmdill I tried and actually had an issue with the reverse hinge bracket on the one I got so I just put it back. I could have sent it back and got a new one but it wasn't worth it, great point though!

Great job except for the 90 degree elbow install in the LP line! Hose clamps on propane? Not me!

Good job!

i sealed the roof today, moved the rugs around and found where the water went on the rug, yuk i took it out and then setup tv vcr/dvd & small desktop plugged it in to solar power inverter and it ran the fridge turned on and was getting cool i think it putting out more then 800 why i did not unplug my home side & tv and internet was on with one vcr on too! all it did was have the fan run no buzzing yet! plug the bigger panels were on grid tie feed back i think it might work better now!!!

Haha cats! She's adorable & I love the way you tend to her. Great on the fridge! I'm so happy for you! I used one of those Coleman coolers for about a year or so. My old fridge leaked ammonia. ACK! Could not use it, it became a fire hazard. After checking what it would take to fix it, I ended up buying a new one instead. It's soooo much better than a cooler!!! Keep the vids coming - I think they are important to others. The tires, a coyote maybe? Do bears mark like that? I don't know...

the grid tie i have puts solar panels or 12 volt battery power back to the grid! it works only one way the grid reg the power feed to it! the grid tie connected to full sun 150 watt panel set feeds back to grid 130 plus watts back the watts feed = whats in used well doing it, i shut down stuff i seen as low as 20 watts! i get more from charging battery's and running stuff off them though inverter & wiring and unplugging stuff not in use!

When a person goes into the wilds to live or stay they get that weird realization that there no longer on the top of the food chain anymore its a scary thing to deal with. I know when I camp in the northern woods of Wisconsin, when I hear the wolfs howling or bear tracks not more than 20 yards from your camp. I have a real hard time sleeping even in the jeep I have a liberty just ok to sleep even a bit tight

those "radiators" look more like condersors. opps. now I'm giving away where I work. I had TONS of tiny tiny worms in all the puddles on my driveway one day, and I've never seen them since. shouldn't got the vac out and sucked all the bugs up. I have my solar fridge battery full at 10:30 am even when its not so cold. Welcome to spring/summer, the "no power worries" season/s.

You get allot of great stuff donated to your cause, those batteries are very expensive and those water pumps and other great articles. Get your camper straighten out. Show the people who donated that stuff you are going to use it. Looking forward to some progress. Vinny

Hey, do you need some electrical wire nuts??? Also do you have a Digital Voltmeter with DC, AC and Ohms settings? I own DSM LABS and may be able to help you with Electronics/ Engineering issues or parts/advice.. Let me know if so glenn at dsmlabs dom

i just saw that stuff today and did not look to close to it. i thought it was sand from the water running through the yard .but yours looks alive.WTF.now i feel itchy just thinking about it.i'm taking the flea powder out there right now.

YES and mice =death if you breathe in the feces when it's air borne and dry. Huntavirus scraes me and every home with mice is a death trap. YET I like mice and think they are cute.....maybe a viper snake would make a better pet....LOL

14.1-15 volts is an equalization charge (automatic on many charge controllers). It's purpose is to keep the plates in your battery clean and extend their life. My charge controller kicks off an EQ charge once a month.
