Frigidaire 13.9 cu installed

[Jims94vmx]

This fits on the existing shelf. Not quite as wide as the Dometic 1350 but gained 2 cu.

Got fridge from Lowe's for 599 (matched HD and Best Buys price).

Way more energy efficient. I was surprised how much battery the Dometic used on AC!

Used green board on ceiling and sides, and reflectix on back wall....also used some reflectix on outside side wall. Taped all joints.

Fridge weighs 100 lbs less the old one!!

I put 2 eye hooks in the shelf floor and ran a ratchet strap over the top. I also plan on some screws in the back into the floor. My next thought
Is to wedge some lumber on top of fridge to keep from shifting as well.

The new fridge fits except the front feet which are under the door...so I will temporarily put in a 4x4 either in 2 columns or 1 piece across both feet to get level.

I will probably raise shelf a couple more inches then finish with moulding. Stay tuned.

Just finished the door latch for travel.

Also used rigid foam board to wedge on both sides and some on the top. Much more solid. I blocked up the front wheels for now. Probably going to rebuild the shelf and bring it up 2 inches...

Looking at doing a 15A transfer switch for fridge. Man is it quiet and cold! Lol

Update. Was able to raise shelf. I put 2x4s front to back where wheels go and 1/2" plywood on top. The original shelf was pretty flimsy by itself. Gap is now around 2.5" all the way around.
Wife loves the height. Now looking to trim it out. Paint? Stain to match existing? Was originally thinking of painting a light color but not sure yet.
