Residentail refrigerators in motorhomes

Depending on the space you have, you might put in a small to medium size residential fridge (forced air, self defrosting cycles, etc) or a commercial compressor fridge like those made for hotel rooms, which usually use less power, not having the defrost cycles, but fit the spaces better and often have the condenser coils on the back, where the air flow that worked for the chimney of the RV fridge serves to take the heat away.

RV manufacturers have lately been installing compressor models made for their purpose, sizes and power requirements somewhere between residential models and the commercial hotel fridges.
