Mostly, you've got it, but leaving them on while driving is not a problem even when going up or down hills. When moving there is enough motion and vibration to keep the coolant circulation going and not cause blockage and possible dangerous heat build-up.toastergirl said:Okay, so for those of us who are RV newbies, most of this technical stuff is pretty confusing, but I am trying to learn. If I understood the post correctly, a lot of RV fridges need to be kept level, and if you leave them on and drive up or down hills or park somewhere where you are not level, it can cause problems up to and including catching your RV on fire. Is that right?
And your friend invented something to stop that from happening?
Sorry for my lack of knowledge, but I am still trying to figure all this stuff out. If I got the jist of the post, that sounds like a pretty awesome invention!

Ned, why does the chart say the temperatures are inNed said:For one data point, our motorhome is off by about 1/2 a bubble both side to side and fore and aft. I collected the boiler temperatures over a 24 hour period using the ARP and the graph shows normal cycling with no tendency to overheat. The ARP set point was 174?F and the maximum boiler temperature was 158?F during that time.
