aliner

i have a 2005 aliner i took the back 2 vent outside off behind the refrigerator one vented and one not,now i dont remember which goes on top and which goes on the bottom can anyone help?thanks-mike
  • My 2004 fridge vents are identical top & bottom, so they can be interchanged. The point of the vents is to allow airflow from bottom to top to expel the heat generated by the refrigeration system.

    I added screen to the inside of my vents to keep the critters from building nests and webs inside. The screen reduces airflow so when it is really hot outside I remove the vents while camping to increase efficiency. Many people have added electric fans to increase airflow.
  • Tip for next time, take a photo of it all before & as you take things apart.

    My son did this for me when he took of the inverter, so I could replace the new one once it came in. The photo help greatly in hooking the wires all back to the correct places.

    Inverter went out (motherboard came loose & broke some things) in Minot, ND area. We would be back in New Mexico by the time the replacement got there.

    I dough I would have gotten it back on with his photo taken by his cell phone.

    Don't have an Aliner, but have used rented ones twice in Alaska. Nice little campers.
