Do they put out any heat when working ?
Does the manufacturer approve of the sealed box and honour any warranty repair caused by over heating ?
Warranty is part of my work so I'm interested in what the fridge manufacturer suggests ?
its only sealed when I need it to be.

its a engal so be ok.

I wouldnt even try it with a waco....the waco would see the box and have a heart attack

Thx Bm, with the generators we sell we suggest 3 sides of the enclosure be open only when the generator is operating, hence my questions regarding warranty. :thumbsup:

No worries

I guess the big thing for me is having it sealed to protect it from the salt in rough water and not bouncing up and down

Its sitting on inch rubber at the bottom off box.

Good idea not to fit off till you make sure it's all working as it should.
