RV Refridgerator Cooling Unit

A RV refrigerator is made up of a number of different components, the most important of these being the cooling unit. The cooling unit, or coils, of a RV ammonia absorption refrigerator is the heart of the appliance as it does the actual cooling by using heat (such as propane) to operate. Everything else on the refrigerator either supports the cooling unit, or is an accessory.

So if your gas refrigerator box looks fine, but has stopped cooling, it is normally a faulty cooling unit that is to blame. No matter how simple or complicated the controls of the refrigerator are all RV Refridgerator Cooling Units require the same three things to operate:

  • 1) The unit has to be level.
  • 2) The unit has to have adequate ventilation.
  • 3) The unit has to have the correct heat source.

If the three requirements listed above are met, the RV Refridgerator cooling unit should work and work well, if it is not then it is probably time to repair or replace the cooling unit.

The most common signs that indicate a bad RV Refrigerator cooling unit are:

  • A strong ammonia smell inside the box, this would indicate a leak in the evaporator section. If the RV Refridgerator Cooling Unit has leaked for an extended amount of time the ammonia smell may no longer be present but you will probably hear a gurgling sound coming from the back of your refrigerator a few minutes after you turn it on.
  • If the controls are working and the RV Refridgerator Cooling Unit is heating up in the back but there is no cooling taking place inside the box this could be a sign of a blockage in the boiler section.
  • Another thing to look for, if you unit is not cooling but you don't smell ammonia inside the box, is a yellow powder around or just above the burner located at the back of the unit. This would indicate a leak in the boiler section. Since this leak is outside the box you would rarely smell it inside.
