Okay, I can see where the circulating refrigerant would act as a "coolant" to disperse the heat.

But the idea of something glowing red-hot in close proximity to combustibles, e.g., the wood paneling visible in the first photo, wouldn't leave me with a good feeling.

And the smoke . . . something must have at least been smoldering pretty well.

Gotta wonder how close it came to being a real, serious fire.

Yoweee!
