Not the safest approach but if youre living inside the unit with your AC running figure out a way to let the cold interior air enter the back section of the fridge. Ive been doing that for awhile. Most people dont really understand the concept. It works pretty good if you are already spending the money to cool the inside of your trailer and stuck with an absorption fridge. You can vent 80F degree air up the back of the fridge instead of 110F.
The most important statement is the first one: NOT THE SAFEST APPROACH.
Propane can leak when refrigerator is running on propane. It could also start leaking when it is not running from the propane connections and solenoid in the back of the refrigerator.
PLEASE don't do this, particularly if the vent is lower on the inside than the location in the back of the refrigerator, as propane is heavier than air and will happily descend into your interior.
