Securing Residential Refrigerator Doors
Joel Weiss:
Our installer had the passenger-side windshield removed for the removal and installation.
Stan Simpson:
So, it would require taking out the entire windshield, since we have a panoramic style..? Thanks for the reply Joel.
Joel Weiss:
My understanding is that the windshield removal is necessary to get the Norcold out. The doors could have been removed from the Samsung and it could have been brought through the door. With the windshield removed both were installed and removed through that opening.
Mike Nunn:
we had ours done at Alliance Coach in Wildwood,Fl. They removed the driver's window took out the old and put in the new with no problem. Good luck
Brad Burgess:
Hello All
I removed our Norcold and installed the Samsung RF197 in our coach myself. I did NOT remove any windows. I did remove the doors from the Norcold and from the Samsung. I removed the passenger seat and the scissor arm that holds the entry door. In this manner the entry door could be folded all the way forward. I will admit that I had the assistance of two younger and stronger guys to lift the fridges in and out. The fridges just fit through the front door and great care and cushioning was used to protect the dash. Removal of the Norcold would have been even easier if I had removed the cooling unit as well. Obviously, measuring the door front door opening and the fridge widths is essential to determine if this will work in a specific coach.
See Bob Nodine's post on iRV2 about building and using a wheeled platform to maneuver the Samsung once it is inside the coach.
