Residential refrigerator
We are thinking of replacing our double door Norcold with a residential refrigerator. Do you need an inverter and extra batteries if you are always plugged in or have the generator running?

Thanks everyone. We always stay in RV parks with full hookups, and run the generator while on the road. We never stay anywhere where the generator would need to run. An inverter and extra batteries could always be added later if we decided to sell, or decide we need one.
I agree. we have had our residential in our trailer for two years now without a problem. No inverter or extra batteries.
Our refrigerator stays cold within limits for at least 6 hours, and that is as long as we wish to drive between hook up.
In a house, a refrigerator will go 24 hours if the door is not opened. Anyone that lives in Florida with the storms and hurricanes can validate this.
