The refrigerator in the RV went toes up over a power hit. Not making any cool when powered. And Megan does not trust the propane side of it.
Tonight, I was able to get it out. There will be alcohol shortly.
None of the dimensions of the unit were smaller than the door opening. Close, but no cigar.
Since it was dead, it did not need to come out in one piece, but the easy approach of hacking off the refrigerant plumbing from the back side was Right Out.
Ammonia is the principal refrigerant. Plus hydrogen and sodium chromate.
Not cutting that tubing.
Fine. I cut the front of it back and that let us get it out the door with lots of scraping sounds.
The plan is to put a dorm fridge in the space. That should suffice, especially when plugged in.
Oof.
