RV refrigerators fail for a few common reasons: a clogged burner, a bad control board, or a cooling unit that has given up. Some shops can test and repair the fridge in place, while others pull it out. Ask on the phone whether they handle both gas and electric modes, and whether they stock common parts like thermistors or burner orifices. If they have to order, you might wait a few days, so plan around it. Mobile techs can sometimes come to your site, which saves you a tow. True Value Trailers and The Rv Guy Colorado inc both list fridge work, though only the second offers mobile service. Neither shop says it does warranty work, so if your fridge is under warranty, get pre-approval from the manufacturer before any repair.
With one mobile tech in Penrose and 11 more repair options nearby, you have choices. Mobile service is handy if your RV is set up at a campground or you cannot move it. The tech comes to you, which can be a lifesaver when the fridge is full and you are stuck. Shop work might be better for a major cooling unit replacement, since they have more tools and space. Call ahead to ask about scheduling, especially in spring and summer when everyone is getting ready to camp. Confirm the service call fee and whether they carry the parts you might need. If you are handy, you can check simple things first: is the fridge level, are the vents clear, and does it work on electric but not gas? That information helps the tech diagnose faster.
Ask if the shop has the parts in stock. A fridge that needs a new cooling unit can take days to fix if the part is not on the shelf. In Penrose, True Value Trailers lists parts among its features, which might help. The Rv Guy Colorado inc is mobile and handles A/C and awnings too, so they might be a good all-around call. Warranty work is not listed by either shop, so if your fridge is covered, contact the manufacturer first. Get pre-approval and ask if they will pay a mobile tech. Also, check the simple stuff: a fridge that works on electric but not gas often has a dirty burner. Cleaning it is a quick job. If you are not comfortable, let a pro handle it. Booking ahead in spring is smart because slots fill up.
