However my fridge struggled in the hot weather and returned to normal running in cooler weather. That’s why I’m looking at options. Cheers.
.......in my opinion it is a false assumption to think that an absorption refrigerator will work better if you fit cooling fans.
Hot air given off will vent quite naturally through the top vent by convection ....... one of the most powerful natural forces on the planet!
What happens in hot weather is that the refrigerator is used a lot more and is expected to be able to supply cold drinks and cope with the door being opened more often......all this from a refrigerator that is far lees efficient than the domestic compressor refrigerator you will have at home.
I solved the problem by purchasing a compressor table top freezer........obviously that stores frozen food but it will also cool drinks and is very handy to pre cool anything before you place it in the caravan refrigerator.
As long as you have the means to transport the freezer you will never want for cold food or drink however hot the weather is..................
