How are Novacool fridges? w/ Danfoss compressor / RFS7501

Hi all

The biggest fridge that Hallmark will install in a 9.5’ pop up camper is the 7.2 CU side by side. Novacool RFS7501. It can’t be a fridge taller than this one, as the roof pops down….

Pretty sure we want a 12v / 120v only fridge…. so does not need to be level at all, ever, and also we never need to worry about changing modes on the fridge (12v / 120v / propane)

How is this fridge? Anyone have any experience with this fridge, or brand? This model uses a Danfoss compressor.

Yes we want this much capacity for extended off the grid adventures, with lots of fresh food with us.

Thanks!

  • I have a NovaCool 12 volt/120 volt in my Class B. It is flawless and far superior to the gas absorption refrigerators. The only downside is they do consume battery power, so recharging every few days is mandatory.
  • I cannot tell you about the Novacool fridge but I have a Tundra fridge with the Danfoss compressor and it's been working great since I installed it in my Outfitter about 15 years or more ago.

    I installed it for the same reasons you mention and am very happy with it.
