Vent for Fridge

The "hidden" space os the area required for the fridge vent.

The fridge, both in the gas and electric mode "boils" amonia in a closed loop, and the excess heat is eliminated via the vent, through the "toaster" looking thing on top of the roof immediately above the fridge.

Refridgerator effeciency could be improved by installing a fan to help cool the back of the fridge and exhaust out the vent. These fans can be installed at RV specialty shops.

Do not do anything to impair the flow of air through the vent system. Most of our fridges operate "marginaly" at best.
