I have a Jayco Pop Top with a Three Way Fridge (Gas,12V & 240V). - Electrolux RM2300
During the Night it will pull down to Zero Degrees C but on Hot days it would struggle to get the Temp down to 10degrees C.
I put a Computer Fan on the outside Top Vent which helped a little bit but not much.
Two days ago I pulled the Outside Vents on the Van off and the Fridge quite easily held at between 2/4 degrees C which is Great and the Freezer Compartment froze Water.The Temp in Bendigo has been 35 degrees. This suggests it is a ventilation problem so
I have ordered two Fans which I am going to install with a thermal switch to start the fans when the Compartment at the rear of the Fridge gets to say 30 degrees. The Fans are 12V and will run off the Battery installed in the Van or possibility as small Solar Panel on the Roof.
Has anybody had ventilation problems with their Van Fridge ???
