Replacing fridge with residential fridge

[living the dream]

I need some advice or "how to" on replacing the Furrrion fridge that came with the Alliance Avenue 36BRM with a true residential fridge. Right now the Furrion fridge is hardwired but if I go to the store the fridge I will get will not be hardwired but a plug in.
Any ideas or thoughts?

Two ways to do it:
1) Set a single gang box with receptacle and plud it in.
2) Remove cord and hardwire it in.

By "hard-wired", I'm assuming that your Furrion refer is DC. If this is the case, as @rglow314 mentions, you will need to provision an AC circuit and outlet for the residential refer.

I'm uncertain what all is currently on the AC circuit in that slide now. You might be able to use it for the new outlet you need. If not, you will need to run another circuit for it from the coach AC breaker panel. Look under the slide to see how all the wiring is run now and what type of wire is used (SOW) and mirror that method for your new circuit if needed.

I'll look. Thanks for the info. Are there schematics that you know of from the manufacturer that will tell me if that circuit is by itself?

Just curious .. are you having an issue with the Furrion that makes you want to move to residential?

No, my wife wants a larger fridge. I'm just seeing if it's possible and it seems like it is.

Mike - the Samsung RF18, years ago, used to be a popular replacement in RVs for the gas absorption refers. Not sure it's still made but looks like maybe some Home Depots have them: https://www.homedepot.com/p/Samsung...ess-Steel-Counter-Depth-RF18A5101SR/315868024
