We travel with fridge on. We fuel at first pump so that our RV is not near the pumps but is in open air.
That doesn't really help in a big fuel spill. I think what typically happens is that something happens to make fuel spill on the ground (like the nozzle falls out of the tank to the ground while still spewing fuel), the spill goes under the RV and as the vapor rises, it reaches the 'fridge and ignites the vapor and that big fuel spill under the RV.
When I do leave the propane on while driving, I always shut off the propane and turn off the 'fridge off when refueling. Even on a long trip, I almost never refuel more than once in a day so it's not a big inconvenience.
Agree. I also would turn off the fridge when fueling. Then just pull from the pump, and turn it back on. Not a big deal. After all its only one button.
As for the WH. We never run with it on, as it only take a dew min for it to get hot, and their electricity is alot cheaper than my propane.
