Upright 12V fridges FAQs:

• 1. Does a 12V upright fridge need 240V power?

  Essentially no you do not always need a caravan fridge with 240V. In fact, some brands, such as Bushman, recommend a 12V fridge only. This is because of the following reasons:

  • The fridge will last longer - caravan fridges with 240V built in have a 240 transformer attached to the compressor. This transformer generates excess heat, which in turn reduces the life of the compressor.
  • The fridge will cool down faster - by removing the 240V transformer from the compressor, the cooling system will produce less heat. This therefore makes it easier and faster for the fridge to cool down.
  • A 12V fridge costs less - a 12V and 240V fridge requires a qualified electrician to install and service the fridge. Whereas a 12V only fridge is generally cheaper to buy, install and service.

  However, having a 240V fridge allows you to connect to AC mains power when available and run 12/24 Volt DC appliances. Usually a customer who intends to use their Bushman fridge in an 'off-grid' living set up will want to run the fridge from a 240V power source the whole time and therefore would use an adapter. The better option for Caravan/Camping use is to run the 12V Fridge from batteries. Bushman recommends that when 240V power is available, use a smart battery charger to charge your battery bank and keep your fridge running direct from the batteries.

• 2. Can a 12V upright fridge auto select between 12V and 24V?

  Yes, most 12V upright fridges can automatically switch between 12V and 24V DC power. This feature makes them versatile for different caravan and motorhome setups, allowing for smooth transitions between power systems without manual adjustment.

• 3. Can I choose which side of the door the hinge goes on?

  Yes many 12V upright fridges have interchangeable door hinge sides. Typically, if the fridge doesn’t specify that it is a left-hand or right-hand fridge, the hinge is interchangeable. Always check the product manual or contact our team before purchasing if unsure.

• 4. Are Bushman fridges manufactured in Australia?

  All Bushman fridges are manufactured overseas, however, Bushman is an Australian owned and operated business.

• 5. Does Bushan DC65X come with the mounting kit?

  Yes the DC65X comes with a mounting kit in the box.
