  • T4 fridge install

    Ive got myself a 65lt waeco front opening fridge to install in my T4 and Ive ordered the flush mount install kit.
    What kind of clearance do I need around it and do I need an external vent?
    Its a 12v/240v model no gas.
    Thanks Nik

      Sorry I shouldve said its a second hand fridge that they no longer list on the website and it came with no info.
      Two phone calls to get the wiring right, and only got the correct info after I pressured them. (No info on the site)
      3 phone calls to order the instal kit kept getting "we will ring you back" I asked about ventallation and they said 3" behind the fridge.
      When I got the "installation kit" its just 4 bits of angle with screws and a diagram saying screw to the side of the fridge. Not alot of info there either
      Im sure I would get alot more info/help off them if the fridge was new but as its second hand theres not much in it for them.

        Typical upright auto fridges need ventilation underneath and around the back. So the 75mm quoted around the back sounds about right. But you'll also need a way to get the air in their and out again. So vents underneath and above the fridge at the front would be useful as this will encourage convection currents past the heat exchanger at the back. As the fridge is not using LPG then you won't need to fit external venting.

          Thanks
          Thats what I needed. I was thinking along those lines with a computer fan sucking hot air out the top so cool air can be sucked in.
          I wasnt sure id Id need an external vent though.
          Thanks Nik
