Currently wilding in D&G being winter as per Dometic recommendations (below 10 deg C) I had fitted the fridge vent lower cover (fans fitted to upper cover so left in place) This last two days with an outside
air temperature of 7-9 deg C my thermostatically controlled fans have been cutting in at 37 deg C. Even last night at 10pm they kicked in, so this morning I removed the winter and fitted the summer vent temperature has now lowered in low to mid twenties. That side of the van is not in full sun in fact there’s hardly been any, high winds and showers being the norm it just shows how the heat builds in the space behind the fridge lowering efficiency and begs the question at what temperatures do these vent covers need fitting?
