Res fridge with inverter
On the last few trips we have used the genset as needed, but now I am considering installing an inverter line just to power the residential refrigerator while on the road. I checked my owner's manual and it said running from an inverter was a no-no, but then it also said do not use the fridge in an RV. I did the install of a 10 cu ft Magic Chef almost five years ago and it's been working just fine (knock on wood). For those out there with residential models: does your paperwork say the same, even if your MH came equipped from the factory with a res model? I was thinking that this may be a void the warranty issue rather than a true problem. I would think that electricity, no matter the source, as long as it was within specs, should be sufficient to get the job done. I am also mulling over MSW (cheaper) vs PSW (more expensive) inverters. Does anyone run from a MSW inverter and have you had any problems?
