Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my heater element is failing?
Signs include the refrigerator not cooling or heating properly, inconsistent temperature control, or the fridge running continuously without reaching the desired temperature. If you've ruled out thermostat issues, the heater element is often the next component to check.

Is this a difficult part to replace myself?
Most RV owners can replace the heater element with basic tools and mechanical aptitude. However, absorption refrigerators involve sealed systems, so if you're uncomfortable working with these components, professional installation is recommended.

Will this part work with my specific RM or RMS model?
This is a direct OEM replacement for RM and RMS series refrigerators. To confirm compatibility with your exact model, check your refrigerator's model number (usually found on a label inside the fridge) or contact our expert support team.
