Adler Barber Ventilation

[Mark Wey]

I checked out the FAQ on this web site and could not find what I am looking for. Can you help me? The cooling unit for the fridge is located in the aft stbd locker beside the helmsman seat. There is a lot of spare space, and I need to utilize all the space I can. What kind of air space is critical around the unit? Will I hinder the operation of the unit if I am to close with other products stored there. Can I glass in a shelf in that locker while maintaing the required ventilation? This is a new boat to me. I am going to spend a lot of time on this site. Great work by all.

Thanks

I have a condensor and one of the evaporators from a Cruisair split air conditioning system in this locker along with the refrigeration unit.  I have not had any overheating problems.

Thanks Dave:

How much room did it take up in the locker. Or how much room was left to store other gear? I am also afraid I might damage parts of the unit. Any comments?
