Ah you youngsters.
Yes it is normal
Modern RESIDENTIAL refrigerators have heaters in them (Defrost elements) so first they cool then they heat.. That way you don't need to defrost so often
RV units don't have the BTU's to spare so they just cool and like Refrigerators of old when you open the door and warm air rushes in...

What can reduce it

Fridge fan
It mounts in front of the fins and did a fairly good job on the area it blew on. Thing is my fridge was wider than the assembly (Why I needed the 4th fan)
How do you wire this item? I’m having same issue of frosting
