Frequently asked questions

Can I replace a 3-way caravan fridge with a 12V compressor fridge?
Yes. Measure the cabinet and choose a VanCool that fits; it runs from the leisure battery on 12 V, and on 230 V through our converter. Have the gas supply disconnected and capped by a qualified person.

Which VanCool replaces a Dometic RC 10.4 or Thetford T2090?
The VanCool 90 L RCN and 90 L DCR are direct replacements for these 90 L column fridges.

Does a compressor fridge need the old wall vents?
It needs airflow behind the unit. Keep the ventilation space given on the product page; the existing vents can help if the compressor sits opposite them.
