residential fridge and inverter

[Vfoote3]

Have one Solar panel installed by jayco and two interstate batteries. When Seismic is not being used will it run off of the solar if we turn the battery kill switch off? And do the fridge doors have to be propped open when not camping?
Thanks in advance.

ps I also posted this here on a thread re 5th wheels. wasn’t certain which was the correct place.

The residential fridge can draw a lot of power. The batteries will power it through the inverter for a short time. Maybe overnight. You’d need a lot of solar to refill those batteries from fridge use. One panel is probably not going to do it. Aside from the time you spend driving, you really want shore power or a gen running to keep a residential fridge going and you’re batteries from getting too depleted.

As far as keeping the doors open. If all is dry and cleaned up when you go to store it, it should be fine closed. I’ve done both with mine, and can’t tell any difference. It doesn’t trap moisture quite like the propane/electric fridge.
