Trying to setup a camping cabin with no electricity. Lights will be solar power or coleman lanterns. The stove will be propane and wood. Water pump will run on a generator. But the refrig is a problem. I know they used to have propane refrigerators, do they still sell them and where?
Thanks
Um, Internet search engine turned up:

Your Google must be broken!
I don't think there are any full size LP refrigerators available in the US anymore, but RV refrigerators which can be had in fairly large sizes are commonly available as 3 way AC/DC/LP but they aren't cheap. You could plumb a couple 100# LP tanks to supply the fridge, lanterns, stove and generator so you deal with a single fuel type.
Well what do you know. I thought only RV types were left in the US market. Nifty.

Yes they do. In Canada Home Hardware carries the Unique Model #UGP-13 W CM. Damby makes them too. The DPR2262W is discontinued, but you might find one in stock somewhere.
Or just contact Lehman's Hardware in Kidron Ohio. They carry a full linup.
Check again - Dometic and Diuamond and Unique all make "full sized" propane refrigerators. All available in the USA - Lehmans in Kidron carry the full line and sell them all over.

OP was very clever to make you spam his webpage for him.

There are also propane coolers now. I do not know if this is of use, but they are small enough not to be a huge drain on alt energy if run on 12 volt.
There are also propane freezers too. Look for "Blizzard".
Yea -
Because propane is safe enough to be used as the heat source in domestic (and even mobile!) absorption refrigerators, but not safe enough to be used as the working fluid (R290) in a regular (vapor compression) domestic A/C system.
Makes sense to me...
Lehman's in Kidron (Dalton), OH has such stuff. See:
