    For those who put in residential refrigerator

    Looking to see if anyone had to reinforce their slide floor after taking out the shelf the absorption fridge sat on?

    I didn't have to reinforce mine when I took it out. It's just wasted space.

    One of our members said his floor bowed with the weight directly on it without the shelf.

    I ended up going with a smaller residential fridge so I can use the shelf. New fridge has 2 more cu then old dometic did. 100 lbs lighter also! Lol

    Im interested in what model residential fridge you got. Im wanting to replace my Dometic RM1350 with a residential fridge, but haven't found one that is close to the same size.

    Picked up a Frigidaire 13.9 cu. Paid 599 and it is 100 lbs lighter, 2cu larger and WAY more efficient. Search Frigidaire 13.9 and you should see my posts.

    I have 2.5 inches on each side and 4.5 inches on top open. I am raising the original shelf 2 inches, then trimming it out. Should be doing this in another week or so....
