I'm looking to change the 240v fridge currently in my van for a three way fridge.

Just seen these on ebay and wondering if they are suitable?

Whats the diffrence between these and the normal 3 way electrolux fridges?

cheers

not much apart from the colour

You'll need the 'connection set' for 30mb

and a way of venting the flue gas outside

whats one of them then?

I need to remove my smev grill to be able to fit a 3 way in so i already have a gas connection.

cheers

It was mentioned in the description

the 30-mbar model may only be used in combination with the ASK-30 connection set.

I would imagine that's a propane regulator.
but make sure to be safe

I surfed around a little and could find nothing about venting from inside vehicle. Seems it might be a stand-alone fridge for outside use on gas. If that's the case, I wouldn't use it inside on gas.

Just thought I'd check as it £100 cheaper than Electrolux and the colour matches my interior :lol:

Thinks that look to good to be true and all that..........

That's good to know. Sounds like a nice way to get a fridge at reasonable cost.


Now I'm curious if the chest models have flue pipe. Always like chest units because the cold settles to bottom and stays in when you open top to get things out. :wink:

Works out at £220 for the fridge and flue kit :D
