In Arizona they charge the trucks an extra 10 cents a gallon. Therefore they frown. TWI 11731 2004 Ovation

Hi Max,

I did install a ball bearing 1.92 watt 12vdc 3.1" computer cooling fan in the right side even with the light switch on the top shelf.
The connection was made before the switch. On the recent trip to Missouri from California Ft Worth and Little Rock with the high humidity, only 2 fins at the other end had a small amount of ice formed at the bottom. The fan is mounted at 45 deg with respect to the fins. The temperature is lower and it cools faster.
Thanks for the suggestion.

I go through the truck side all the time. They may not give you cash price with your Flying J card though.

Fred, many people mount such a fan in the area behind and above the rear of the reefer such that it pulls air through that area and across the gas unit. This allows the reefer to work better as designed by removing any build up or trapping of hot air back there.

Hi Skip,

This fan is inside the refridgertor. The flue fan is another discussion. Whether this provides better cooling inside the box needs discussion based on empirical data. Lowering the temperature in this area may be the wrong thing to do as a hotter flame may be better.
This refride works on a gas disfusion principle.
