Today, at the Winnipeg Folk Festival (yes, that was a plug!) I saw a Westy with a novel way of addressing heat build-up on the fridge side of the van. On the exterior of the van directly opposite to where the fridge sits inside, there were numerous magnets holding in place a section of reflective aluminium sheeting. This sheeting is the same stuff you would commonly see unrolled, and placed on dashboards to reflect the sun back through the windshield when the vehicle is parked. The vehicle was unattended so I couldn't chat with the owner about the effectiveness of this approach but regardless, I didn't want to stick around because there was just too much great music going on at the numerous festival stages.
