Replacement Refrigerator for 2021 Reflection 337rls

[cetmanhd65]

My Norcold 1210t cooling coils sprung a leak. According to Norcold the cooling coils are obsolete, and you cannot order them. First question - Can someone suggest a replacement Fridge that is not a an overpriced Norcold or Dometic? Second question - Before I remove the broken Fridge, can anyone tell me the exact rough opening of the fridge compartment in my kitchen slide?

Depending on how you use your RV I would suggest residential, if you camp with hookups all of the time, or 12 v dc which may require a better battery system than stock. I am no longer a fan of absorption refers since the 12 v dc compressor models have come out.

Unfortunately that information is not in the packets GD provided to the moderators. However, if you use the Norcold's specifications they should allow you to narrow the search for a replacement. Don't overlook the weight of a potential replacement (as compared to the weight of the Norcold) and any clearances required, usually for airflow.

Thank you Brian & Michelle and Howard. I am leaning toward a 12vdc. I have found a Furrion double door that meets the need, but it is taller than my broken Norcold. Thats why I was looking for the rough opening for the refrigerator compartment. I guess when I remove the Norcold I will get the size of the opening. I was just wondering if someone had already done a replacement and knew those measurements.

I have a 2021 303RLS and my Norcold 1210 died also. The Slide box is 24Dx33Wx66H. Went through the board and all voltages are good. AC heater tubes have voltage and show 41 ohms. It just slowly got warmer over the last few weeks and stays at 55 degrees. No error on the diagnostics, LP works fine also. I jumped the fans with a 5 amp fuse so they would run continuous. No help. I don't see any leaks but I'm done with this junker, 3 years and nothing but soft ice cream and condensation. Looking for a 12v or 120v replacement that will fit. Any help would be appreciated!!

You will have to check the size but I think the Furrion 4 door 12 v dc fridge will fit into that opening. When they designed the new 12 v dc fridges they made them fit the same openings as the previous absorption fridges. There may be some trim work involved though. Not sure what other brands are out there but I am happy with the Furrion.

If you check the data package for your RV, you should find a document that describes the refrigerator installation specifications. That document should have details on the opening.

Norcold 1210 series require a cabinet. opening that is 63.25-63.38"H x 32.69-32.82"W x 24"D

Don't like hearing about these 1210 model early deaths...I have one too. But working well so far.

Found a Hamilton Beach residential.The biggest issue was depth due to the island. Bought it from WalMart for $860 with a 3 year warranty. Don't get the big difference in price for the same thing. A little woodwork for the height. The Furrions and Norcolds of the world is a scam. I'm not paying that much.

Two questions......in your posting signature....you list the Ford F250 and then a 6.7 Powermax. What is a Powermax? I've never heard that terminology before. Second......curios do you mainly stay plugged into shore power or boondock since you've added a residential fridge? If boondocking, I've heard the power requirements are significantly more for the inverter and power draws against your battery bank for the residential fridge rather than running the new 12v DC fridge. If you are mainly plugged into shore power....obviously not a concern.
