If you own a caravan or motorhome in New Zealand, regular gas fridge maintenance is crucial for safe travels. Here's everything you need to know about burner servicing for your 3-way absorption fridge.
Why Your RV Gas Fridge Needs Regular Burner Service
Carrying out a burner service on your RV gas 3-way fridge is essential to ensure it operates efficiently and safely. Over time, the burner can accumulate dirt and debris which can reduce efficiency and cause poor or no cooling performance.
Safety Warning: A clogged burner can lead to incomplete combustion, producing dangerous carbon monoxide. Burner servicing must be carried out by a certified gas fitter, as the burner needs to be completely removed and stripped, requiring the disconnection of gas pipes.
Benefits of Regular Gas Fridge Servicing:
- Improved energy efficiency – Reduce gas consumption and running costs
- Consistent cooling performance – Keep food fresh and cold during your travels
- Early problem detection – Identify wear or damage before it becomes expensive
- Carbon monoxide safety – Prevent dangerous gas build-up
- Extended fridge lifespan – Protect your investment
How Often Should You Service Your Caravan Fridge?
We recommend annual burner servicing, or at least biannually if you're a frequent traveller. Regular maintenance ensures your fridge remains safe and effective throughout your New Zealand adventures.
