Our expert's take
An absorption fridge suits you if you mostly stay on hook-up or carry gas, and it runs very quietly, which you will appreciate at night. Have it fitted by a qualified installer with the correct ventilation and, for gas use, the correct flue. If you use the 12 V setting, remember it is really meant for while you are driving.

Frequently asked questions
What are the main specifications?
Total volume: 167 L. Freezer volume: 29 L. Dimensions (H x W x D): 124.5 x 52.5 x 59.3 cm. Weight: 39 kg. Power sources: AC / DC / gas. Consumption: 4 kWh/24h electric, 420 g/24h gas. The full list is in the Specifications table in the product details.
How does an absorption fridge work?
Absorption fridges cool silently using heat from gas, 230 V mains or 12 V rather than a compressor, which makes them popular in caravans and motorhomes with gas and electric hook-up. 12 V operation is normally intended for use while the engine is running.
Does it need special installation?
Yes. Absorption fridges must be installed with the correct ventilation, and gas operation needs a flue and vents fitted to the manufacturer's specification. Gas appliances should be fitted by a qualified installer.
