RV refer fires burn at the back of the unit, not at the front. Both plastic vents would be gone, you will be able to see the back of the refer through the side of the camper and the hole would be in the top of the slide out, not the roof of the camper. I did replace my NoCold 1200 with a home unit partly because of the fire potential but this was not a refer fire.
Sad that a working smoke detector should have saved four lives.
SCVJeff, I used to be a volunteer fireman... does that count?
Here is what a refer fire looks like.
