MetalGator,
If it is an absorption fridge you may wish to reconsider plugging in all the time.
My Fridge uses 5.7 kwh per day. It is a big waste of energy.
Your instincts are good--all batteries should be replaced at the same time. Just make sure to wire them in a balanced manner.

Don't fill an uncharged battery much over the plates.
Fully charge, and then add distilled water.
Then do a short "stirring charge".

Thanks for the responses. My motorhome is a 2018 Thor Miramar 35.3. I will have to look at the inverter/Charger and see what the model is. The old batteries were still working fine but once I saw the one battery swollen, I wanted to change both of them.
Would turning off the battery switch while plugged to AC at my storage facility keep the batteries from overcharging? We do have stuff in the fridge so still need to be plugged in.

Freezing is also a cause of swelling. Any chance that happened?
