Best way to run fridge while not level
Had a weird thought this morning... I know TT needs to be level in order for fridge to work properly. However, if that's not an option, I wonder if it's better if TT was unlevel side to side or front ...

Check your fridge make/model and look up the manual online or contact the manufacturer for max. out of level degrees. Don't know what fridge you have but our Norcold is designed to operate up to 6 degrees out of level front to back and 3 degrees side to side. Older fridges can't be out of level as much.
For a fridge oriented against a side wall, 6 degrees is quite a bit and an 8' wide TT one side would be 10" lower on one side. A 30' long trailer with fridge in same orientation would be 18" lower at one end.
An out of level trailer can be a challenge to sleep in!
This seems to be the major consensus out there. Front to back leveling is more important than side-to-side (speaking TT here and not the fridge unit).
My thought was in heavy rain, would I be better off with a little lean side to side or front to back to drain off the water better. I guess I'll do half to one degree at most side to side.
