Question on the Nova Kool: the 9000 vents inside the RV. This will dump the heat inside, might be good or bad depending on your climate. But it does eliminate a couple of huge holes in the side and roof. Those with inside venting, do you notice the heat?
2nd, leveling, within any reasonable limit, is not an issue with these?
Though it is always good to get things as level as possible the compressor fridges are very forgiving of being a bit out of level as compared to an absorption fridge. As long as you are comfortable with the camper's attitude the fridge will be as well. In fact I intentionally level the camper with a slight left/front lean to allow the water to easily move to the drain that is in that corner of the shower.
I had my Tundra installed with inside venting by Outfitter and the heat is a non-issue. As is the noise, since the camper has to be dead quiet for us to even hear a slight noise and that includes the supplemental fan I installed that only runs when the fridge does to help venting through the closet.
In fact closing off of the outside wall vents with insulation will allow your heater/AC to work better as they aren't fighting the intrusion of ambient temps and wind.
