Both fridge and freezer controls are located on the operational guidance display at the top of the refrigerator section that illuminates whenever the French doors are open.
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 Everchill 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.

Double doors create a large opening that is great for keeping party platters and other frequently used fridge items at your fingertips without bending over. The spacious freezer drawers make it easy to find your favorite frozen items.by: James08/05/2022
I have had the unit now for about a week. It has been running in an 88 degree environment, and has, so far, been flawless. I have a temperature monitor in it, and the reported temperature matches the temperature on the digital display in the refrigerator for both the freezer and fridge sections.
I also have a power meter on it, as I wanted to know how many watts it pulls max, and steady state. It seems to run at 2 different speeds, with one speed taking about 60w and the other taking about 100w-105w. The most I have ever seen it pull was 131w on the initial chill, and that was a spike, not continuous. Even in 88 degrees, it does shut off too.
We are getting ready for the first trip with it, and it does not have any door latch mechanism other than the default magnet closure, which is fairly strong. We will see if it gets docked a star or not after the trip if the doors come open.

Replaced the factory dometic refrigerator with the 12 volt everchill. Wished the camper I have would've had this in it new. Looks and works great. More room in fridge and freezer than the domestic. Would recommend to anyone.

Still working as it should. Im so glad I made the decision to go with everchill.

This is a very poorly design 12 volt refrigerator. I only ordered it because I'm selling my 5th wheel trailer. You should demand better from China

Refrig looks great, works, great and etrailer even was able to ship it out earlier than expected!
by: Brad04/07/2024
Great!! It came packaged great nonissues with anything fast delivery also.
by: George 07/08/2022
The refrigerator is working well. Had some problems originally because I used too small wires to connect the refrigerator. I am using the refrigerator in an off grid cabin with solar power and adequate batteries to ensure continuous operation. The refrigerator uses approximately 150 amp hours per day depending on the ambient temperature and how often you open the door and for how long etc. Your results may vary.

Can we put this in our slide out?
Heather A.

You can put the Everchill refrigerator in your slide out. The biggest reason that people have issues with their refrigerator in a slide out is lack of ventilation so the fridge overheats. This Everchill fridge does not require external vents however it does require 1-2" of clearance behind the fridge for ventilation. One of the other things to take into consideration is how old the moving components of your slide out are. Sometimes adding the extra weight to the slide out can put strain on the motors. This particular fridge weighs around 195 lbs. Slide out technology has improved over time so you may be ok if your RV is newer.

This unit is designed to operate fulltime. If your statement of extreme heat is reference to outside environment while inside the RV is being conditioned, then yes this should operate just fine. You do not identify what gauge wire your factory installed is, or the length of run. So I am unable to advise if what you have is adequate. Please...
view full answer... - Is it Okay to Tip The Everchill RV Refrigerator On Its Back To Get Into The RV Camper? It is okay to lay the Everchill RV Refrigerator # WAY44FR on its back to get it inside the RV. Don't worry Bryan this is the way most motorhomes have to have the refrigerator and some furniture brought into the camper after its built. You will want to leave the refrigerator standing upright for 4 hours after laying it on its back to reduce the possibility of damage to the cooling system.

You will just need to make sure you have 1" of clearance along the sides and back wall for ventilation.
view full answer... - What Does DF Code of Everchill Refrigerator IndicateThe DF code that an Everchill fridge part # WAY44FR would show indicates that the power source for the fridge can't provide enough amperage for it to operate properly. So you might check to make sure your battery is in good condition.
view full answer... - Troubleshooting An Everchill RV Refrigerator That Isn't Cooling If your Everchill RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer Drawer # WAY44FR was cooling and suddenly stopped then you likely have a drain line issue. In the back of the fridge there should be a drain line that allows condensation to drip out into a small pan and evaporate. These lines get clogged up and then the water freezes and essentially chokes the fridge. I recommend pulling the fridge out from the wall and unplugging it and leaving the doors open so that the line can thaw if it is frozen. While...

While we won't have a prefect fit we do have the Everchill RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer # 324-000119, which can fit inside the same space that the RM7732 was mounted in. This fridge is 59-5/8" tall x 23-1/2" wide x 24-3/4" deep so you'll have a bit of room width-wise that you can utilize for extra storage.

view full answer... - Are RV Tankless Water Heaters PropaneYes, all RV tankless water heaters such as my preferred model, the Excel RV Tankless Water Heater, # EX93FR are designed for liquid propane (LP). They will have an electric source only for the purpose of providing ignition spark.
view full answer... - Troubleshooting An Everchill RV Refrigerator That Isn't Maintaining Temperature If your Everchill RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer Drawer # WAY44FR isn't maintaining the proper temperature then you most likely have a clog in the condensation line choking the fridge up and preventing it from properly cooling. I recommend pulling the fridge out from the wall and cleaning out any dust build up and and cleaning the condensation drain line so that the fridge can breathe. I also recommend checking the voltage at the unit to ensure it's receiving enough power to properly operate.

Without knowing the exact amount of amp hours your battery bank has I can't give you a definitive answer on how long the batteries will last. A 100 watt solar panel is going to give you around 30ah in power in a day in best conditions so you'd be replenishing around 60ah each day with your two panels. I've attached some of our articles on solar...

- Availability of Propane RV Fridges and Powered AlternativesThe only fridge options we carry are powered electronically, and that's becoming more and more the standard. If you end up going with an electrical RV fridge then I recommend checking out a 16 cu ft Everchill fridge for a full-sized option. This is available to be powered both with 12V DC power - see Stainless Steel # WAY44FR, as well as 120V AC power - see Black Stainless Steel # EV87FR. I'm attaching some review videos of each fridge for your reference!
view full answer... - What is Amperage Draw of 12 volt Everchill Refrigerator and Freezer part # WAY44FR The 12 volt Everchill Refrigerator and Freezer part # WAY44FR draws up to a max of 20 amps and is just as efficient as an AC powered fridge. It just uses DC power instead.

It can be ran directly to the battery or to your trailer's DC distribution panel for power. You'll want to measure the distance you'll have the wire run between the fridge to the power source to determine the correct wire gauge needed. Voltage can drop over long distances so you could end up needing to use a bit thicker gauge than just 14AWG. Once you have the length we can see what...

view full answer... - Troubleshooting Everchill RV Fridge That Won't Get ColdSometimes when fridges won't reach temperature it's a power issue. If the battery of the RV isn't fully charged the fridge just won't have the power needed to get cold. Other thing you can try is unplugging it to see if the condenser is frozen up and once thawed will work again. If that's the case make sure the drain is not clogged and there is enough air flow.

- Does EverChill Refrigerator Have A High-Voltage Shutoff Switch?The EverChill # WAY44FR does not have an automatic high-voltage shutoff switch. According to the owner's manual, available at the EverChill's website, a possible reason for the refrigerator not working is only being unplugged or a blown fuse in the travel trailer power center. The DC operating volage is 9-17VDC, electricity >15A. There is a power indicator on the front of the refrigerator. It will illuminate when the input voltage is greater than 12.5V, the Full icon light is on. When...

This is a 12V, 17 cubic foot stainless steel refrigerator with French doors and the freezer on the bottom, very similar to many contemporary residential models. This will operate directly from the fuly charge battery bank in your 5th wheel and then operate from shore power when plugged through the...

After a year, I would still say the unit is Excellent. I dont even plug the camper in at home anymore. It just runs on solar 24x7 between trips now
