240v fridge - Samsung, F&P or Hisense?

Can I recommend a Split System Aircon Bruce? Kay's still complaining it's too cold in here , and the power companies are going broke.

Where did you put the "compressor" thingy Jon? in a bin or ???

[Jon and Kay]

Not usually under pressure like you Dot ....Oh...you mean the Outside Unit.
I was perplexed .... I had to have 600mm clearance on each side, back , and 2 metres on front. Rubbish!

I placed the outside unit inside the front mudguard. The aircon man said, what is a stone hits it. I said that if it does then I would have to be travelling backwards. I have done over 1000km and not even got any dust on the outside unit.

It has all worked out by planning...accident, but I have the outside unit inside the front mudguard. It backs onto the RV skin, abut 100mm away using an aircon bracket from Reece Plumbing (can carry 150kg) The unit is 45kg.

The front faces internally at the Chassis.

We have 40+c Today, we run the aircon at 28 all day, which Kay says is too cold ... whatever, it's very comfortable, and we can run at that temperature all day from our batteries/solar.

Thanks Jon

I have a chuckle every time I see a house boat with the condenser unit and fans on the roof.... when the thing is sitting in as much cooling water as you could ever need Water heat exchange tubes are commonly used for boat refrigeration so why don't the use them for the air con as well?
You could set up one for a compressor fridge, but the inverter fridges these days as so efficient there is no practical reason to do it, but air conditioning?
As for split system air con in an RV, why stick with the outside unit in the original box? It's not like they would give you a warranty if the thing died, so pull it apart and mount the parts where they will fit without too much hassle.
