I own a 2007 Allegro Bus and have had multiple problems with the 4 door Norcold refrigerator. I am going to switch it out for a residential refrigerator and was wondering what model Whirlpool would fit into the space where the old refrig. is. Do you have to take out a window to get the old one out and the new one in? Who would you recommend to install it? OR - any other tips you may have. Thanks so much!!

The one who has been doing the largest number of them is Brannon Hutchenson's Custom RV in Red Bay, AL. He would be the one that I would contact for the information that you want: CustomRV

HERE is a link to a Tiffin owner's blog that details the installation of their residential fridge by Brannon Hutcheson.

Brannon is definitely the go-to guy for that and other projects. He does great work.

I did the swap about 2 weeks ago. It was not too bad. Should have done it a long time ago.
