My experience with my brand new rv was that the refrigerator was barely cold but a warmish 50 deg F during the heat of the day and the freezer was fine like 8deg F. Manufactuer installed a new replacement gas regulator that matched the original, a Fairview brand, and temps improved a lot like an 8deg improvement in the refrigerator. Comparing notes with other rv owners of the same make and model as I had showed a high failure rate and poor performance of the Fairview regulators. A few actually fails to the point where there was propane leaking around the diaphragm!!! Not feeling totally safe even with a new regulator, I replaced the Fairview with a Marshall branded regulator. Marshall is an old company that has been in business for years and make a quality product. By the way, I did this replacement because I don't have access to any equipment to check gas pressures and for me, was the easiest approach. Once the Marshall was in place, I could hear the burner of the refrigerator roaring a bit louder than the Fairview. So now, everything is fine with the refrigerator and freezer with steady temps during the heat of the day around high 30s to 41-42 deg F. Now the next step is to keep the freezer coils frost free.....
