A 1question for the 'feidge gurus out there. We all know that with the stock Dometic refigerator in our Westies that there is heat build up behind the refigerator, that there is a fan on the Dometic to move air across the cooling fins when the temp gets up to a certain point, and that many have taken additional steps to get that hot air out of the space behind the refigerator. But, how about the Norcold like several of us have installed? Is the heat being extracted from the inside being dumped in that same cavity behind the 'fridge? The Norcold has built in vents top and bottom but when my Norcold is running I don't get any sign of heat (like with the Dometic) at the vents in front or at the top of the cabinets (behind the stove). So where is it going? Or is most of the heat problem with the Dometic on propane the propane fire being used to create the cooling cycle?
