I upgraded the fridge in my Micro Minnie from absorption to a 12v compressor fridge. This was a wonderful upgrade, but it left two large holes in the camper that I wanted to cover to stop air intrusion. Here's how I fixed the roof vent.

Excellent use of a roller skate!

Everyone may already know this, but a hard plastic scraper can be your friend on lap seal removal, but even so, one has to use care to not damage the roof surface. I’m on the verge of getting rid of the old fridge too. Didn’t know you could get rid of the hole in the roof as well! AND SUPER THANKS for the hindsight comment re: installing the wood patch before you finish the fridge install!

Put a little heat on that tape after you put it down to make the seal even tighter...just not too much heat!...

do you have a link for the plastic sheet you used to cover the hole?

Great Idea, I’m thinking of doing this in place of my leaky skylight. I’m guessing smooth side down on the plastic?

Im curious, doesn't the vents help put heat put from the refrigerator? So if you close them off heat will go inside rv? & definitely the roof vent seeing hot air rises . Just curious because i live in one & if i can do that to cool it off i will

What are you using for a refrigerator now?

Would this apply to an evaporated cooler on a single wide?

@thenightowl5403 6 месяцев назад

What plastic piece did you use ?

@bounderchris Год назад

Tim the tool man?! Why no lap sealant around the edges?!

@popsah1 Год назад

I thought about using lap sealant, but the EternaBond is water tight... at least for awhile. I inspect my roof many times a year. Thanks for the comment!

@Endeavor2BMe Год назад

So what is "it" that you covered your plastic piece with? Was kind of the key feature of your video, and was never mentioned. Watched the video twice to make sure.

@popsah1 Год назад

The black plastic piece was covered with Eternabond. Is that what you are asking about?

@thenightowl5403 6 месяцев назад

What is the plastic piece of the black piece that you ordered? Do you have a link ⁠@@popsah1what is the
