Syncro twin slider - fridge location issue

Post by dcfb77 »

Right, I've nearly finished my Syncro twin slider and I cant figure out the best place to put my 3 way fridge AND still have the flue vent going somewhere out of the van?

I'd like to use the existing (and new) 3 way fridge out of my other van so I dont have to buy a new one just yet.

Any one come across this problem or have any cunning ideas as to where to stick my fridge/flue kit?

Vent through the pillars?

Is it a gas or electric fridge?

If its a gas fridge then it needs to vent straight out with shortest path, and the flu needs to be horizontal or angled very slightly upwards to allow the heat /gases to escape without condensing - and you probably don't want it going through the roof causing a draft / noise and possible water leaking path.

Also if its a gas fridge, don't forget you need to a drain hole under the fridge to ensure un-burt gas to escape - it means cutting into your floor. Sorry.

Any room in the back?

i`ve seen a vent in the b piller before and when i had my twin slider i had planned on venting though there.

dont know about a vent in the floor though. my westy doesn`t have a vent in the floor under the fridge.

suppose it depends on the layout you have planned.
