running refer on propane in a closed garage.
We like to pre chill our refrigerator a day or two before putting items into the freezer and fridge and was concerned if running the refrigerator on propane in a closed garage is a safety concern?

It's my understanding that when an amonia fridge is run using electricity (to heat an elemenat that the gas normal heats) that eats a lot more power, essentially like a small space heater, compared to a dedicated electric compressor fridge.
Wouldn't it be more cost effective to purchase a small/hotel/apartment size electric/compressor fridge, and just move everything over to that when you put the RV in storage. That way you save propane and energy by using a more effecient fridge during non use of the RV.
I'd just leave my off, and the doors open when not traveling.
I know it got off track in the thread about running in it a garage, so long as you have plenty/several CO alarms that you trust and you know it's a danger, it's your choice.
