The Norcold & Dometic Refrigerator Specialists

RV refrigerators are unlike home refrigerators โ€” they use an absorption cooling cycle driven by heat (propane or electric element) rather than a compressor. When they fail, most general appliance technicians have no idea how to diagnose them. We've serviced hundreds of these units and know their failure modes inside and out.

Common issues we see: cooling units failing due to crystallization in the system (often after years of operation), control board failures causing intermittent operation, and propane valve issues preventing proper cycling. If your fridge won't get cold, don't replace the whole unit before having us diagnose it.

California Climate Challenges for RV Appliances

Sacramento Valley summers routinely hit 105ยฐF+. Absorption refrigerators struggle significantly in high ambient temperatures โ€” cooling performance drops when the outside air is hot. We can evaluate whether your fridge is performing within spec for your conditions or if there's a serviceable issue making things worse.

AC units also work harder in Sacramento heat. Capacitors and fan motors have shorter lifespans in extreme heat climates โ€” we recommend a seasonal inspection before summer camping season.

My refrigerator smells like ammonia โ€” what does that mean?

Ammonia smell indicates a leak in the cooling unit. This is a serious issue โ€” the refrigerator should be turned off and not used. Call us right away.

My AC cools but not like it used to โ€” is that repairable?

Often yes. Reduced cooling performance is frequently caused by a failing capacitor, dirty coils, or low refrigerant. We diagnose before recommending replacement.

Can you service appliances at my RV's location?

Many appliance repairs can be done as part of our mobile service. It depends on the repair โ€” call us and we'll tell you what's feasible on-site.
