Norcold 10 cu ft DC Fridge



Versatility makes this fridge a great choice for your RV. Reversible doors give you increased flexibility when installing your fridge. If you don't like the way it opens, and you have the space, you can change it to open the other way. The shelves adjust to accommodate extra ingredients for home-cooked meals, and the dual crisper drawers allow you to separate your fruits from your vegetables. The travel lock keeps the doors closed regardless of how you install them, so you don't have to worry about them opening while you move on down the road.


RV Fridge Replacement

It doesn't matter if you are replacing your non-working refrigerator or are just ready for an upgrade for your RV kitchen, you have a few things to consider before making that purchase. Some original RV refrigerators use propane for absorption cooling, while this Norcold model uses 12V DC from your RV's battery. Absorption refrigerators can be hard to fix and take a long time to cool down, but they run on propane which is great when you don't have electricity.


Newer 12V refrigerators require little maintenance and are safer because they use a compressor instead of propane. This allows it to cool down 4 times faster while avoiding safety risks associated with propane. In addition, 12V fridges provide more usable storage space in the same footprint. Keep in mind, you must have the proper battery bank or invest in solar. If you don't, you could drain your batteries in as little as 1 night of dry camping.

Video Transcript for Review of Norcold RV Refrigerators - Full Fridge with Freezer - NC56FR

Hello neighbors and friends, Steve here with etrailer.com. Thanks for joining me folks while we look at our Norcold RV refrigerator and freezer combo with 9.7 cubic foot of space, runs on 12 volt power, and it has a nice elegant stainless steel finish, and you can get it in a right or left hand opening option. So folks, these do come from the factory, actually boxed up left and right. However, you can still reverse that door, so don't worry if you end up ordering incorrectly, you can simply take the time needed to swap the hinges and the hardware and everything to left versus right or vice versa. Now that being said, try your best to get the right size, the right opening rather, the first time. I'll put the line of numbers on the screen for you.

And before I dive in deep to some of the other stuff, I wanna throw another image up. The top right hand, that's gonna be a picture of what the plug looks like. It should marry up to what you currently have in your RV or camper. And that being said, I highly recommend you making sure that matches up. If it does not, you technically, I guess, could cut that plug off.

That is not recommended. Again, not recommended. However, there are two power ground wires there. The top left photo is the back bottom of it. Again, due to limited space, I'll throw these images up so you can see them better now.

You got a drip pan there, and it's gonna catch condensation and all that kind of stuff. You got the compressor. Bottom left hand corner, that's an image of the light. I tried to wire it up here for you. Again, the lighting and everything, the angles, I just couldn't really see the brightness too well.

Again, it's 12 volts, use an LED. It is bright in the dark. That's pretty much when you would need to have that light on anyways. And then the bottom right photo there, image is just a closeup of the panel on the top of the fridge. You got power, and then you got plus or minus to move the temp stripper down. The next ones over are your freezer. Hit the freezer button to adjust the freezer temp, and then hit the fridge button to adjust the fridge temp. And then you get the moon shape there on the top right of that bottom image, and that's for nighttime use. So again, a lot of information I just went over. I apologize if I went too quick, but basically a nice fridge. Again, I'm gonna spin this around real quick so you can kinda see all sides. Obviously, it's gonna fit inside of a cutout. That cutout dimension is gonna be 24 inches deep. The width of the cutout is 23 1/2 inches wide and 59 7/8 inches tall overall. Now that being said, again, that's the cutout dimensions. That's the back view there. Again, I showed you an image a few minutes ago of the closeup of that drip pan. As far as overall dimensions, if you we inchesre looking at the front, that same dimension, that 59 7/8 inches tall, because that cutout needs to have this included. That way this is pushed back in place and you still have access to that panel. Now the difference is gonna be that the width here is gonna be the same or a bigger 26 7/8 inches and that overall width on the front facing is 23 1/4 inches wide. So about a 1/4 inch difference than the cutout itself. So again, those are the measurements you're gonna need. The door thickness is gonna be 2 7/8 inches thick. Let's go ahead and open up the freezer door here. And as you can see, we got our meal up in there, staying nice and chill. If you look here, you've got a built-in door holder. You can put some stuff in there as well. So that's a freezer, lots of space in there. And the fridge, same thing. We can put some drinks and stuff in there. We can have a nice little space. You got drawers and stuff on the bottom. I'm gonna zoom in so I can kinda show you a couple other things real quick. So again, you got space on the doors here and everything, obviously. You got your holders for the doors. But I wanna point out on the inside here, and I'm gonna use my tape measure as a pointing apparatus, if you will. So you got your sandwich up there, but down here, you can kinda see it slopes, right So it slopes down to the center, right about in there. That is perfectly normal. When I first opened this, I thought it was kind of a defect or something, but then looking at it more, those slopes on the left and right-hand side, there's a hole down there, and that's a drain hole. So that's gonna catch any condensation and any of that kind of stuff. Maybe you're defrosting everything. That's gonna catch all that into that back pan in the back of the fridge/freezer combo here. So again, you got two nice drawers. You got shelving. The shelving is adjustable. You do, however, have to take off a cap, and then they are screwed in place. So it's a little bit of effort required to move the shelving, but that's what you want. So they are screwed in place. That's so they can't be shifting around when you're driving down the road and going from place to place. So it's a perfectly normal thing with these kind of fridges and freezers. Now, the digital panel, I showed you a close-up earlier on that image. Again, you can adjust all those things. Five levels of adjustment as far as one through five on the coldness on the fridge and freezer. You have a nighttime option. That was that moon button I was telling you about earlier and showing you. The nighttime option is gonna reduce energy. It's gonna reduce noise, use while you're sleeping, and go into almost like a sleep mode, if you will. It has a low-voltage protection built-in system. So it's gonna stop the fridge from completely draining the RV's battery if it senses it's pulling too much voltage. And it's gonna automatically turn off when your battery reaches 10.4 volts of power. Now, it is a manual defrost. That's gonna conserve your battery life. So you're gonna want to manually defrost it, open it up after you shut everything off, let it manually defrost, scrape off any kind of freeze or frost, those kind of things if it's built up. Now, the doors do lock like they are now to prevent opening and swinging while in transport. And again, these are totally reversible. I don't know how well you can see it, but you can basically take these covers off, swap the doors, left to right or vice versa as needed. And there's a pin up top right now. It's on this side because it's pivoting this way. And just like your regular fridge and freezers in your home, you can swap those over left to right. It's not a big deal. Just keep that in mind whenever you're ordering. Now, again, it's a simple installation. You get that plug in on top. That should marry up with the plug in your RV or camper. And then you slide it in place. And it's pretty simple, not much to it. Now, in night mode, it's gonna draw 6.2 amps. It's gonna draw 8.3 amps in its standard daytime mode. And the rated current for this is 15 amps max. The whole thing is about 133 pounds. So make sure you get someone to help you when you're installing it and putting it in place. And also when you're removing the old one. Well, folks, I think that's gonna wrap it up. Just a quick look today. I do wanna throw up the left and right part numbers one last time for you. Again, make sure you're ordering the correct one the first time so you don't have to worry about swapping the doors. But again, if for some reason you're ordering correctly, it's fine, you can swap those doors as needed. Folks, I'm Steven. Thanks so much for your time. Have it safe out there.
