    Once the fridge issues have been examined, if more ventilation is needed the scupper vents I mentioned earlier would work but would need to be closed in the rain. I was confusing them with muller vents, a couple of which would probably be better. The venturi effect would suck out heat whilst allowing some fresh air in. The place I’ve linked to is somewhere I’ve dealt with on many occasions. They are on the ball & very professional.

    When I worked for Telstra we used to fit boat vents that had a pipe up into the scoop part to keep water from entering the pod

    IF you look closely at one they have a rubber flap on the back to stop weather and dust

    These are better than a whirly no working parts

    I like the one I put up more......... I reckon 2 of them would look great on top of Grunters pod.

    Hey DX what did you settled on and how well does it work? I am looking into sleeping in the pod with potentially the doors closed but still enough ventilation going on.
