We
just traded in our 2012
[email protected] and bought a new
[email protected] 2018 Boondock from a dealer. It has a Norcold N180.3
model 3-way refrigerator. The manual says the refrigerator will not operate
properly on propane above an altitude of 5,500 feet, and recommends plugging into shore power when above that elevation. We bought this to “boondock”, i.e.,
go off the grid. We often camp at elevations higher the 5,500 feet. Our 2012
[email protected] had a Norcold 3-way with a high altitude kit installed. The dealer and
nüCamp say there is no high altitude kit available for the N180.3 model refrigerator.
Does anyone know of a 3rd party high altitude kit available or a
work-around to allow the fridge to work properly on propane above 5,500 feet?

The Alde however makes some interesting sounds at high elevation - even with the high elevation mode on.
