Bear in mind that Norcold will not warranty a fridge mounted in a GMC,
even after all the baffles are added, unless the bottom of the fridge
compartment is at the bottom of the fridge vent. In the coaches with a 2
door fridge, the bottom of the vent is 10" above the bottom of the fridge
compartment. No warranty. See page 4 of the installation manual.
Installation must meet ALL of the criteria.
