We have a new Discover America 339 RSB with a Norcold Refrigerator. In our 1995 trailer we would have to defrost the unit about once every 2 weeks. I expected that those problems would not be present with the new unit, but we still have problems with frost developing on the right rear of the fridge on the coils. We have been in pretty cool temperatures so far and this surprised me with this new unit. We have been parked perfectly level for 6 weeks and have been running on electric. I am getting concerned about what may happen when the warm weather hits this summer. I already plan to install an additional fan in the back of the fridge.
Anyone else with similar problems or any suggestions, or is this still a common problem with this RV refrigerators?

Thanks, LIKENIT
