    Pod ventilation

    Hi

    I need to put some air into the back of my pod as I'm driving along, because my 95lt fridge doesn't like it. lol.

    I was looking at getting two of those things that spin around, or would a normal vent that doesn't move, be better?

    Remember, we sleep in the back, so I don't want to be 'dripped on' . lol

    Wouldn't dust be more of an issue?

    I've built a few canopy's for touring camping and work.
    It may pay to look at insulation to keep the temp down a bit.
    Also a small fan ( Perhaps like a computer one ) just to
    move the air around the fridge vents

    G'day Rosco,

    Have seen a forward facing grill that has a removable air filter in it, don't know where.

    So no dust but circulates air as you want and pressurises the area to stop it getting in any where else.

    Never been able to find one, they are on some camper trailers or slide on set ups.
    Cheers

    This is what you want.

    Get it cut to the thickness you want (frame width) and then cut to suit.
    Tough as nails. Light as a feather. And will make a huge difference.

    My troopy had air compensators on the rear qrt panel , helped when closing a door.
    IF you look closely at one they have a rubber flap on the back to stop weather and dust
    yet still breathe,
    These are better than a whirly no working parts
