When the temperature gets hot out, your RV refrigerator can struggle to keep it's temperature cool enough to avoid food spoilage and to keep your beer at the perfect drinking chilliness. There are several factors that contribute to refrigerator efficiency, such as the sun beating down on the refrigerator side of your RV, or a dirty gas burner creating a poor heating flame. Even the levelness of your RV can cause inefficiency over time. One of the simplest and most effective mods that can be made is to improve the ventilation at the back of the refrigerator by using a fan to direct air up and out of the refrigerator vent column.

An RV refrigerator is not like a residential unit. It uses a heat absorption system rather than an electric compressor, condenser, and evaporator, as a residential refrigerator does. Heat absorption requires removing the heat from the absorption unit via chemicals and air circulation. This is accomplished by convection or draft. A narrow space behind the refrigerator allows cooler air to be drawn in to the space at the bottom of the unit. The air rises and passes over the heat absorption unit fins, and out of the vent on the roof above the unit.

Some refrigerator installations actually prevent this convection action to work. In a typical RV installation, a dead air space can exist directly above the refrigerator. This space can trap warm air and drastically reduce the draft effect. This reduction in draft is why you should do the refrigerator cooling fan mod. While not a cure all for a poor refrigerator installation, a fan can dramatically improve refrigerator cooling performance.

There are several fan types that can be used for this mod. It is recommended that you use one of the permanent-mount types as the battery-powered kind can require frequent replacement of the batteries, especially if you forget to turn the fan off when not using it. Some use computer fans that are 3 to 4″ in diameter. These require little power and move a surprising amount of air.

A thermostatically-controlled fan however, is the best way to install a refrigerator ventilation fan. These are permanently mounted and have a thermostat that provides power to the fan when the ambient air temperature reaches some set point. Different temperature set points are available with the most common switching at 80°F. A switch can also be wired in to the fan's power supply so that you have control over when the fan is on.

There is some debate as to where the most effective place to install the vent fan. Camco, for example, has a solar powered fan and refrigerator roof vent combination. This puts the fan at the top of the vent stack, pulling air through the lower vent and up through the roof vent. Still others mount the fan at the bottom of the vent stack, right at the lower vent. This position pushes air up through the stack. Both have been found to work equally as well so the choice is your on which way to go. Either way, using a vent fan will ensure a cold beer on a hot day.

Tip: Try to park your RV where the refrigerator side of the RV will be in the shade as much as possible. This will help reduce temperatures inside the refrigerator vent column dramatically. If shade is unavailable and your refrigerator is on the curb side, use the awning to provide shade.

Pool Pumps and Filters Combined Into One Unit – are They What You Need

Aside from your pool itself, the pool pump and filter that you use will be the two most important pieces of equipment that you will need to keep your pool operating and clean. One new option that is now being marketed is pool pumps and filter that come as one integrated unit.

A Perfectly Matched Complete System

The STA-RITE inground sand pump and filter system is just one of these systems and it allows you to simplify your pools water maintenance system by combining both into one easy to install unit. Its a perfectly matched, easy maintenance system that takes the guesswork out of matching and buying two separate systems.

One Year Guarantee

Also, the one year guarantee covers both the pool pump and the filter which simplifies matters even more. However; it is doubtful that you will need the guarantee for the one piece corrosion resistant polyethylene tank that can stand up to years of exposure to any type of weather conditions.

Easy Backflushing

As far as the filter is concerned, it is the latest in simplicity of operation. Its “easy glide”, 6 position, top mount, multi-port valve makes for easy backflushing and smooth flawless operation.

Optimal Pool Clarity

Inside of the filter system, it features the very latest in advanced engineering with uniquely designed diffusers and laterals that make for a far more even and balanced flow over the sand bed for optimal pool water clarity.

Energy Saving Technology

Powering this double unit is the very latest in energy saving technology in the super efficient Max-E Pro Pump. Also, no need to shop around playing water system match maker, because this system comes complete with the pump, filter tank and multi-port

i have a1970 gto and i took out the old motor and i am replacing with a chevy 383 stroker?

will the motor mounts from my pontiac 400 motor work on the chevy 383 stroker and will i be able to use the same starter and water pump and timing cover and the AC compressor?

Ive done several swaps like this and its one of the easiest swaps to do.The frame motor mounts will not work but frame Mt's. will work from that era chevell. The AC comp will work but you will need the mounting brackets.Same as the alt. All the other parts will have to be off a Chevy-starter,w/p,timing chain cover,fuel pump etc.You will also have to get a Chevy bell housing if standard trans.,or a Chevy trans or adopter if automatic trans and Pontiac flywheels are different than Chevy. Chevell headers will work. I'm pretty sure the radiator will have to be changed, lower hose on a Pontiac is on drivers side and a Chevy is on the pass. side-same as the fuel line. P.S. will need Chevy brackets also. Most of this stuff can be found on eBay or a older car junk yard.This swap is a bolt in with Chevy parts.
