Both fridge and freezer controls are located on the operational guidance display at the top of the refrigerator section that illuminates whenever the French doors are open.
RV Fridge Replacement
It doesn't matter if you are replacing your non-working refrigerator or are just ready for an upgrade for your RV kitchen, you have a few things to consider before making that purchase. Most original RV refrigerators use propane for absorption cooling, while this Everchill model uses 12V DC hooked to your RV's battery. Absorption refrigerators can be hard to fix, don't have a dedicated defrost cycle, and take a long time to cool down, but they run on propane which is great when you don't have electricity.
The 12V refrigerators require little maintenance, most have an auto defrost cycle, and they can cool in as little as 1 hour. They're also safer because they use a compressor instead of propane, which allows it to cool down 4 times faster while avoiding safety risks associated with propane such as fires, gas leaks, and explosions. The downside is that you must have the proper battery bank or invest in solar. If you don't, you could drain your batteries in as little as 1 night of dry camping.

Double doors create a large opening that is great for keeping party platters and other frequently used fridge items at your fingertips without bending over. The spacious freezer drawers make it easy to find your favorite frozen items.by: James08/05/2022
I have had the unit now for about a week. It has been running in an 88 degree environment, and has, so far, been flawless. I have a temperature monitor in it, and the reported temperature matches the temperature on the digital display in the refrigerator for both the freezer and fridge sections.
I also have a power meter on it, as I wanted to know how many watts it pulls max, and steady state. It seems to run at 2 different speeds, with one speed taking about 60w and the other taking about 100w-105w. The most I have ever seen it pull was 131w on the initial chill, and that was a spike, not continuous. Even in 88 degrees, it does shut off too.
We are getting ready for the first trip with it, and it does not have any door latch mechanism other than the default magnet closure, which is fairly strong. We will see if it gets docked a star or not after the trip if the doors come open.

Replaced the factory dometic refrigerator with the 12 volt everchill. Wished the camper I have would've had this in it new. Looks and works great. More room in fridge and freezer than the domestic. Would recommend to anyone.

Refrig looks great, works, great and etrailer even was able to ship it out earlier than expected!

This is a very poorly design 12 volt refrigerator. I only ordered it because I'm selling my 5th wheel trailer. You should demand better from China

Great!! It came packaged great nonissues with anything fast delivery also.
by: George 07/08/2022
The refrigerator is working well. Had some problems originally because I used too small wires to connect the refrigerator. I am using the refrigerator in an off grid cabin with solar power and adequate batteries to ensure continuous operation. The refrigerator uses approximately 150 amp hours per day depending on the ambient temperature and how often you open the door and for how long etc. Your results may vary.

Can we put this in our slide out?
Heather A.

You can put the Everchill refrigerator in your slide out. The biggest reason that people have issues with their refrigerator in a slide out is lack of ventilation so the fridge overheats. This Everchill fridge does not require external vents however it does require 1-2" of clearance behind the fridge for ventilation. One of the other things to take into consideration is how old the moving components of your slide out are. Sometimes adding the extra weight to the slide out can put strain on the motors. This particular fridge weighs around 195 lbs. Slide out technology has improved over time so you may be ok if your RV is newer.

- Troubleshooting An EverChill RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer Drawer # WAY44FR That Isn't properly CoolingIf your Everchill RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer Drawer # WAY44FR isn't cooling to your settings then it likely has a clog in the condensation drain line and is essentially choking. It could also be that you don't have enough clearance behind it for it to breathe and properly operate. I recommend pulling the fridge out and checking the drain line at the back of the unit behind the wire gate to see if it's clogged up and freezing. I would also leave it pulled forward to see if extra room to...

view full answer... - Replacement of Norcold 1200LRIM with Everchill # WAY44FR While I was unable to confirm the exact dimensions of the Norcold 1200LRIM, I think your current refrigerator to be 63-1/4 inches tall, 32-11/16 inches wide, and 24 inches deep. Please confirm this. The Everchill RV refrigerator with freezer drawer at 17 Cu Ft, 12Volt in stainless steel, # WAY44FR that you reference has an overall dimensions of 28-1/2" wide x 67-3/4" tall x 28-1/2" deep.

I've attached a snippet of the section where it talks about setting the fridge and freezer below.

- Ice Maker Option for Everchill RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer, # WAY44FRThe 17 Cu Ft 12V Everchill RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer, # WAY44FR does not have an option for ice maker. But we do have the Camco Mini Ice Cube Trays, # CAM44100.
view full answer... - What is the Wall Thickness of the Everchill 17 cu/ft Refrigerator For the Everchill # WAY44FR, the door thickness will be 3" and the wall thickness is 1-1/2". Power consumption on the fridge will vary depending on how often it is opened and what settings it is set at, but my contact at Way Interglobal (who supply this unit) says that the average consumption will be about 72w per hour. That means you're going to use roughly 1700w of power on your fridge each day. If you haven't decided on a solar power system, you're definitely going to need a fairly...
view full answer... - Amperage Draw On The RV Refrigerator With Freezer The Everchill RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer Drawer - 17 Cu Ft - 12V - Stainless Steel Item # WAY44FR is going to pull around 10-20 amps an hour. Without knowing the exact amount of amp hours your battery bank has I can't give you a definitive answer on how long the batteries will last. A 100 watt solar panel is going to give you around 30ah in power in a day in best conditions so you'd be replenishing around 60ah each day with your two panels. I've attached some of our articles on solar...
view full answer... - Clearance Required When Installing An Everchill RV Refrigerator With FreezerThe Everchill RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer Drawer - 17 Cu Ft - 12V - Stainless Steel Item # WAY44FR dimensions are 28-1/2" wide x 67-3/4" tall x 28-1/2" deep. You'll need at least 1" of clearance on the side and 1-2" of space behind the fridge to allow it to vent. So you would want an opening that's 30-1/2" wide x 68" tall x 30-1/2" deep.
view full answer... - Troubleshooting An Everchill RV Refrigerator That Isn't Cooling If your Everchill RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer Drawer # WAY44FR was cooling and suddenly stopped then you likely have a drain line issue. In the back of the fridge there should be a drain line that allows condensation to drip out into a small pan and evaporate. These lines get clogged up and then the water freezes and essentially chokes the fridge. I recommend pulling the fridge out from the wall and unplugging it and leaving the doors open so that the line can thaw if it is frozen. While...
view full answer... - Energy Usage Troubleshooting For An Everchill RV RefrigeratorWhen you wire two 6v batteries in series you are combining the voltage to get 12v but the amp hours stay the same so you're only getting 225amp hours out of both batteries. I recommend using a 12v battery instead of two 6v batteries to start. Then depending on the what all is drawing power in your RV I would recommend multiple batteries. Solar panels only reach max draw for about six hours a day and that's only if the conditions are perfect so you could add more panels to help charge...
view full answer... - Is it Okay to Tip The Everchill RV Refrigerator On Its Back To Get Into The RV Camper? It is okay to lay the Everchill RV Refrigerator # WAY44FR on its back to get it inside the RV. Don't worry Bryan this is the way most motorhomes have to have the refrigerator and some furniture brought into the camper after its built. You will want to leave the refrigerator standing upright for 4 hours after laying it on its back to reduce the possibility of damage to the cooling system.
view full answer... - Do RV Fridges Have Ice MakersRV fridges like the Everchill part # WAY44FR do not have the option to have ice makers. In an effort to make them as simple and reliable as possible that feature just isn't there. The best option for this purpose would be to purchase an ice maker separately like one that sits on your counter top or to go the old fashioned route of ice cube trays, part # CAM44100.
view full answer... - Refrigerator for 2007 Winnebago Journey 39KIf you want a 12 VDC model, I suggest the Everchill RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer Drawer, # WAY44FR. This is a 16 cubic foot stainless steel model with French doors and freezer drawer on the bottom. This will run from your RV's battery bank allowing for full use when not connected to shore power. For a 120v AC powered model, I recommend the Furrion RV Refrigerator, # FCR14ACBQASS. This is a 4 Door - Stainless Steel, 14 Cu Ft model. There are no options with automatic ice makers available.

- Are RV Tankless Water Heaters PropaneYes, all RV tankless water heaters such as my preferred model, the Excel RV Tankless Water Heater, # EX93FR are designed for liquid propane (LP). They will have an electric source only for the purpose of providing ignition spark.

Your fridge could have an ice build up on the thermostat sensor causing it to not kick on or a drain line clog. I recommend unplugging the unit for a few days and leaving the doors open so it has a chance to defrost. You'll also want to remove back panel from the fridge and you'll see the drain line going into a pan for the...
view full answer... - What Wire Gauge Is Needed To Power The Everchill RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer Drawer # WAY44FR The Everchill RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer Drawer # WAY44FR runs of 12v DC power and can pull up to 14.5 amps. It can be ran directly to the battery or to your trailer's DC distribution panel for power. You'll want to measure the distance you'll have the wire run between the fridge to the power source to determine the correct wire gauge needed. Voltage can drop over long distances so you could end up needing to use a bit thicker gauge than just 14AWG. Once you have the length we can see what...
view full answer... - Troubleshooting Everchill RV Fridge That Won't Get ColdSometimes when fridges won't reach temperature it's a power issue. If the battery of the RV isn't fully charged the fridge just won't have the power needed to get cold. Other thing you can try is unplugging it to see if the condenser is frozen up and once thawed will work again. If that's the case make sure the drain is not clogged and there is enough air flow.

- Availability of Propane RV Fridges and Powered AlternativesThe only fridge options we carry are powered electronically, and that's becoming more and more the standard. If you end up going with an electrical RV fridge then I recommend checking out a 16 cu ft Everchill fridge for a full-sized option. This is available to be powered both with 12V DC power - see Stainless Steel # WAY44FR, as well as 120V AC power - see Black Stainless Steel # EV87FR. I'm attaching some review videos of each fridge for your reference!
view full answer... - Troubleshooting An Everchill RV Refrigerator That Isn't Maintaining Temperature If your Everchill RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer Drawer # WAY44FR isn't maintaining the proper temperature then you most likely have a clog in the condensation line choking the fridge up and preventing it from properly cooling. I recommend pulling the fridge out from the wall and cleaning out any dust build up and and cleaning the condensation drain line so that the fridge can breathe. I also recommend checking the voltage at the unit to ensure it's receiving enough power to properly operate.

After a year, I would still say the unit is Excellent. I dont even plug the camper in at home anymore. It just runs on solar 24x7 between trips now
