Refridgerator Poll (sort of)

my first TT, we had it for over 20 years. we loved that TT and we left the frig on all the time. the frig never went out and I kept my spare beer out there. since then we have had two other TT's and we still let them run. I have one TT we are trying to sell and we have just left the frig off and the door open. be sure if you turn yours off, to leave the doors open or you will get mold like you've never seen before and hope to never see again.

We tend to use ours in spurts for long trips so when not in use, there is almost nothing in it. We load up for trips. It is plugged in but refrigerator is off, no ac, air it out for a day once in a while. MAKE sure that there is always water or antifreeze in toilet to prevent gasket drying out.

Photo below was taken this last winter, don't have an Spring photos of the new camper in the driveway. But you can see where we park the camper here.

Yes, we keep the refrigerator on 24x7 all year round. In the warm months we run the air-conditioner only when we're actually using it, which is quite often. Unless the temps reach the 90's or more, we don't need air. Where we live, there is always a breeze. Open all the windows and door and the camper cools down real fast.

We keep drinks in the refrigerator, especially since we sleep in the camper more than we sleep in the house!

Off.

My 5er is stored in a garage at my house. We leave the fridge on from April - October when we are likely to use the trailer. We pack each meal before we leave, but all the condiments stay in there for the summer (dressing, mao, ketchup, etc).

I will turn the AC on at around 90*.

We leave ours on during season. Camper stays stocked with clothes, toiletries and dry goods. We like to be ready in case we want to take off and go :)

Ours stays on from spring to fall, parked next to the garage in our yard. We don't run the AC. When the weather is hot we try to be somewhere cool.

Ours is always on.

Our is turn off when we do not plan on traveling within 1 week. Just a habit we have gotten into. I have read reports that fridge should be left on. But have not followed that advise. WE had our fridge repaired last April. Lasted 10 years without a problem using this procedure.
