Problems with Dometic RM2820

[Tom Warner]

I am not Bill but I can tell you what happened when I installed mine.
The space that bluebird had installed the original Reefer in did not
conform to the design that Dometic specified in their brochure. I had
to completely rebuild it. I believe that is why they installed a fan
in the back to get it to work. The slide in toaster in the kitchen
protruded into the space that normally would flow air thru the coils
so I removed it. The coils themselves must be fairly close to the
rear wall and the sides of the reefer must be insulated good and be a
tight fit. There also has to be an air damn installed on the top of
the reefer to stop hot air from "pooling" at the top and not flow out
the roof vent. Mine now works excellent.
