At least for Terry W. and zqueenz, I may have part of a solution for you. We were having issues with our Dometic RV refrigerator and replaced it with a residential refrigerator rather than have ongoing problems. After all, the Dometic only lasted for 2 years before giving us problems.

Since we had ordered our 2010 with an inverter and extra batteries, it was no problem for us to go to a residential.

If both of you are in circumstances where you will not be boondocking, but will always be hooked to electric and not needing a fridge that operates on LP gas, it might be something to look into.

Terry, if you had known of this in advance, you could have ordered your DRV with a residential fridge already installed at the factory. If you are interested, you might see if you can still make changes to your order. (You might also see if you can get DRV to install R-22 air conditioners instead of those with the newer refrigerant.)

If either of you ever consider changing out your RV fridge for a residential, here is a link to a lots of information about our "saga" with replacing ours.

Good luck with it all. As for the insulation, we've not had our Mobile Suites for all that long (just over 2 years), but we've not really had issues with the construction. While I don't know Paul Cross, he does have a good reputation among the DRV owners. Definitely see if he can do your PDI.
