THOR #13043
Hi from NJ

Just bought my first travel trailer. So I hope you all won't get sick of my questions.
It's a tiny coachman 13 '
Went on two trips so far. Planning many more.
Glad to be part of the community.

First question. I was wondering about my refrigerator while on the road. Since the refrigerator has to be level, to work properly, what happens while I'm driving? Will it stop working?

Congratulations and welcome.

Don't worry about the refer: The bouncing around from road travel makes up for it not being level.

Your refrigerator will be fine. If sitting still, it needs to be near level. Basically it’s a gravity deal. The liquid has to return to the boiler

Thank you. I know I'm probably over thinking things. Hopefully by next year, I'll be a veteran rver.
