you can ventilate the heat exchanger inside the van if you want. Some conversions do just that (the Westfalias also have a fan to assist cooling I believe). Don't know if it makes the van a bit warm in a hot summer though. Autosleepers just have the upper vent, they utilise the hole in the floor that is there to allow any gas leakage to escape should one occur to also act as a cold air inlet.

Up to you what vents to fit really
