RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer Reversible Door

Feel right at home with this side-by-side door refrigerator. Recessed handles, an LED control panel, and a door alarm give you all the benefits of a residential fridge while quietly consuming less power. The 2 clear drawers in each compartment are perfect for the organization of your fruits and vegetables. You can place commonly used items at the height that's most convenient for you. There is a slight disadvantage to side-by-side doors - what you gain in organization, you lose in shelf width. Some larger items may not fit, such as platters and large turkeys, even though most families do not need that kind of room on a daily basis.


RV Fridge Replacement

It doesn't matter if you are replacing your non-working refrigerator or are just ready for an upgrade for your RV kitchen, you have a few things to consider before making that purchase. Most original RV refrigerators use propane for absorption cooling, while this Furrion model uses 12V DC hooked to your RV's battery. Absorption refrigerators can be hard to fix, don't have a dedicated defrost cycle, and take a long time to cool down, but they run on propane which is great when you don't have electricity.


The 12V refrigerators require little maintenance, most have an auto defrost cycle, and they can cool in as little as 1 hour. They're also safer because they use a compressor instead of propane, which allows it to cool down 4 times faster while avoiding safety risks associated with propane such as fires, gas leaks, and explosions. The downside is that you must have the proper battery bank or invest in solar. If you don't, you could drain your batteries in as little as 1 night of dry camping.

Delivery was really quick. I had expected roughly 2 weeks shipping time and I received it within a week. Customer service was great answering my questions ahead of time. I had one issue where the door panels were not shipped. One very quick phone call and the problem was addressed and I received the parts within a couple of days.

Great job etrailer!

Everyone I dealt with was super helpful, from the sales associate to customer service and the experts. Our new fridge is installed and running great. It also looks awesome.

After one year of use our only regret is that we did not upgrade our Norcold sooner. It was only 4 years old at the time and the top of the line model which cost 2 12 times what this Furrion costs us.We are full timers and the cost of electricity alone from 900 watts running full time because it could not keep up to 175 watts running 13 of the time we saved enough money to cover the cost of the fridge in 18 months. It is very well built, super quiet and 100 frost free after one year. If youve been missing hard ice cream that is the additional bonus of this fridge. On top of saving in energy cost we have a colder fridge. We keep the fresh food side at 32 degrees and the freezer at 4 degrees cant do that with a Norcold. The price is very reasonable for what you get including extra space over our old fridge. We can run it 24 hours on one lithium batteries and we have 4 so travelling is not an issue. These old school propane absorption fridges are going to be extinct pretty soon with the advent of these great 12 volts compressor fridges like this one. I was not totally sure when we first bought it, the installer even said not to count on it being really frost free. Guess what? It is and we have zero regrets.

@Phillip Glad to hear you're having such a great experience with this fridge! I love all of the details!


by:

Very nice fridge, easy install. Some considerations must be made if you are putting it in an rv, you must secure it without damaging the internals and it does not have an off setting in the controls so you should put in an on/off switch to cut the 12v power for when you are not using the rv. Also it doesn’t have door locks for travel mode, but those are miner things and this fridge is a great upgrade from the old gas electric we had!



by:

Things were good until it come to shipping out the refrigerator. Zero tracking was available. Had absolutely no idea when it would show up.



by:

Honestly I was septical about it
But
after 1 year I am getting confident
The refregirator is the best we ever had before
The only thing There is no travelling lock for the doors



by:

It works great! The only thing we don’t like is the size of the freezer! Not very deep or wide. Can’t fit a frozen pizza or a rack of ribs you buy at the store.As for freezing and fridge it works way better then the combo gas/elec!



by:

Madison was a doll! The products and the quick responses are excellent. The weak link is the shipping Co. Tforce ( formerly UPS freight). They are junk! They show up unanounced or planned and if you are not able to drop what you are doing or you may not be there at that time they just go back to their terminal and charge you for another delivery even if you want to do a customer pickup. Tforce is all about extra fees! They dont answer their phone, dont return messages even tho we specified 24 hr call before delivery with the shipper. Puts a serious dent in the otherwise excellent etrailer. Unfortunately etrailer tells me they only use this shipping Co.



by:

Fridge is good quality and cooled down to temperature in a fraction of the time. Haven't had a chance to use it yet besides just running it while in storage.



by:

Looks good set it up so far works right only 1 day of operation time will tell

  • Wiring In A Furrion Arctic RV Refrigerator
    Hi Phillip, The Furrion Arctic RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer # FR42PJ is going to come with a red, white, and green wire. The red wire is your positive, white is your negative, and green is your ground. Both the white and red can be ran to the DC distribution panel and the green can be mounted directly to the frame with a ring terminal. We've found with RV fridges that attaching the ground to the frame right below it tends to avoid some issues. The fridge has a 19amp draw so a 20 amp fuse...

  • Troubleshooting Furrion Artic RV Freezer with Ice Build Up
    I'm currently dealing with uncooperative appliances at home so I definitely get how frustrating your situation is. Defrosting the Furrion Arctic RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer # FR42PJ is the first thing to do when it comes to troubleshooting, but you shouldn't have to defrost it that often. Aside from thawing out the drain the other 2 things we've found to help with RV fridges are the following: 1. Lower temperature settings for the fridge 2. Check the ground connection and possibly run...

  • Can The Furrion Artic RV Refrigerator Run Off Of 120V AC
    The Furrion Arctic RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer # FR42PJ only runs off of 12v DC power so you'd need to either buy a separate converter to drop the 120v AC power down to 12v DC or run a line from your RV's DC distribution panel to the fridge in order to power it.

  • Does 400 Watt Solar Panel Kit of Montana High Country Have Enough Power for Furrion RV Fridge
    The Furrion refrigerator part # FR42PJ can draw up to 11 amps per hour which if that was the only thing drawing power the setup on the Montana would easily work great. Especially since you have lithium batteries. I also attached a link to a page that has a guide for determining how much solar power you'd need as well.

  • Can Furrion Arctic Fridge Fit In Place of Norcold 1210T
    The Furrion Arctic Fridge part # FR42PJ that you referenced measures 70-1/16" H x 32-15/16" W x 25-1/16" D whereas your Norcold 1210T is about 7 inches shorter so if you have at least 7 inches of space above your current fridge the Furrion would fit in place of it.

  • Can Furrion RV Fridge # FR42PJ Replace Norcold 1210
    I looked up the dimensions of your Norcold 1210 and found it measures 68.88 x 37.88 x 28.75 inches is close enough to the Furrion part # FR42PJ that it would fit and work great. This fridge measures 33-1/8" wide x 70" tall x 25" deep.

  • Does The Furrion Arctic RV Refrigerator with French Doors Come In Stainless Steel
    The Furrion Arctic RV Refrigerator with French Doors - Black Glass # FR42PJ does come in stainless steel with part # FR62PJ. While running this refrigerator can pull 11 amps per hour with an estimated 1.8kWh per day. That being said, there are a lot of factors that go into energy consumption, such as the temperature of the food you're placing in it, how many times you open the doors and how long they are left open, the temperature in the RV, etc. The fridge will have to work harder to...

  • What Is The Operating Temperature Range For The Furrion Arctic RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer # FR42PJ?
    The Furrion Arctic RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer # FR42PJ has an operating temperature range of 50°F to 110°F. The comment about the Climatesmart has more to do with storage temperatures so it will not become damaged from freezing or extreme heat when the camper is being stored.

  • Does Furrion Arctic RV Fridge Have Lock For Doors While Traveling
    Hi Phil; good question and the Furrion Arctic RV Refrigerator # FR42PJ does not have a lock for the doors to lock them while traveling. There isn't a separate latch or lock for this particular fridge, so if ensuring the doors are always closed is paramount, I would suggest considering a different option, the Everchill RV Fridge # EV77FR. The # EV77FR is smaller, at about 11 cu ft compared to the 16 cu ft of the Furrion, but it does have a latch that can be used so the doors stay shut -...

  • Installing A Furrion RV Fridge In A 2017 Grand Design Solitude 375RES
    Hi Phillip, John installed the Furrion Arctic RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer # FR62PJ in a 2019 Grand Design Momentum. In the video he did up having to take the top fascia board off and trimmed it down to fit the new fridge. To cover the gaps on the sides he just ended up using some slide out seals we had lying around in the shop. You can get some rubber gaskets from your local hardware store in the appliance section to cover the gap or nail some new trim around the edge and butt it up to...

  • Is There an On/Off Switch For Furrion Arctic RV Refrigerator
    Hi Phil, You're not missing anything; there isn't an on/off switch for the Furrion Arctic RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer # FR42PJ. You do want to disconnect it from the 12 volt power in storage; if you're going to be away for a while but not for the season, you can also put it in Low Power mode by pressing and holding the Function button for 5 seconds. When in this mode, the interior lights, compressor and defroster are off.

  • Replacement RV Fridge Recommendation for Norcold 2118SST
    Hey John, so the Norcold 2118SST measures 69 in H, 36 in W, 24 in D so the Furrion Arctic part # FR42PJ that you referenced would be exactly what you'd want as it works really well, is reliable, and is very close in dimensions as it measures: 33-1/8" wide x 70" tall x 25" deep

  • Does the Furrion RV Refrigerator Have a Locking Feature
    Cindy, the Furrion Arctic RV Refrigerator # FR42PJ does not have a lock for the doors to lock them while traveling, unfortunately. There isn't a separate latch or lock for this fridge, so if making sure the doors are always closed is important, I'd suggest going with a different option, like the Everchill RV Refrigerator # EV77FR. This fridge is a bit smaller, about 5 cubic feet, but it does have the option to add a lock using # 324-000149.

  • Does Furrion Arctic RV Fridge Come With Plug For Propane Line When Replacing Old Fridge
    Hey Phil, A plug for the propane line is not provided with the Furrion Arctic RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer # FR42PJ. To cap off the unused propane line going to your old fridge, you can use a threaded plug fitting, which is something you can get at any local hardware store.
