Best RV Residential Refrigerator For the Money, Test Run Amp & Wattage testing before Installing. 

Kevin, thanks for the info. Looking forward to the installation.

Another great video.

I put that exact same Frig in my 07 Open Road 2 years ago and it was the best Mod I have done. Since my old coach was not inverter equipped I installed a dedicated 2500 watt inverter from Harb Frieght to use when on the road, easy connection to 2 house batteries under the step. I assume your home now. Sorry I missed you this year.

You know what I did. Best ever

check with the manuf. to see if installing this unit in a moving vehicle voids the warranty ,,just a little warning...

Would like to see you install it.

Here is a link to the PDF Haier spec sheet I downloaded from the Home Depot site for this refrigerator: images.thdstatic.com/catalog/pdfImages/97/97c545d2-ee51-4079-96ad-76cfa8d2cb07.pdf Here is the link to the Haier Installation Guide: images.thdstatic.com/catalog/pdfImages/35/35489fc6-3d21-4bbd-885b-7c7dfe9eeae9.pdf From this guide it says: .. . . Your refrigerator is not designed to operate in temperatures below 55˚F (12˚C ) or above 95˚F (35˚C). • Do not install your refrigerator in any location not properly insulated or heated, e.g. garage, etc. Keep out of direct sunlight and away from heating sources such as radiators, heaters, and cooking appliances. • The following are recommended clearances around the refrigerator: Sides……………1” (25 mm) Top....................1" (25 mm) Back..................2" (50mm) As you know I am looking to also replace my Norcold with a compressor refrigerator, and have researched quite a few of them. But virtually all of them have a similar disclaimer about where you can install it, and about the need for proper air circulation around the unit. Some say do not install where the temp will fall below 45 degrees, etc, and ALL of them specify free air circulation is needed around it. I think the rear air clearance should not be a problem, but am curious to see how much side clearance is actually available once the old unit is removed. From a quick measurement I did on mine from the back side access panel I only have about 23.5" wide available. But I have yet to remove my old unit to see exactly what is going on there. So: (1) Are you concerned about the variable temps possible when mounting in an RV - which may easily exceed mfg guidelines? (2) Side clearances - When measuring the wood trim around the front (interior) side of my Norcold it would appear that there should be more than 23.5" width available. Waiting to see what you uncover in your model once your Norcold is removed. (3) Installation mounting security. Virtually of the refrigerators of this size I researched say they are designed to be free standing. But I know that my RV Norcold has multiple mounting points (including a strap along the very top only accessible through the roof vent). When you consider how much weight in food and drink can be loaded into a refrigerator, and then know how it is subject to severe rocking & rolling, bumps & grinds when driving, I can understand why Winnebago wanted the refrigerator to be mounted securely. So now - when replacing the Norcold with a compressor model, the mounting security becomes a major consideration, especially when these have ~ 2 cu.ft more of capacity to hold more weight in food & drink. My point is that it will be interesting to see how you handle secure mounting when you actually get into the install of your new Haier. I suspect it may come down to locating areas where you can tap short sheet metal screws into the outer case which might attach mounting straps which you can fasten to the wooden inside enclosure. Wish I was there to help you - as we have very similar Adventurer models - but I look forward to see what innovative solutions you come up with - as you usually do. Love your videos!
