Tired of your caravan fridge not coping with hotter weather, resulting in food spoilage & hot drinks?
Our Australian Made, Klevacool™ (pronounced Clevercool) Caravan Fridge Fan Kit for large Dometic rooftop vents can make a big difference!
Our kit is designed to fit your vent perfectly & extract the hot air from behind your fridge, allowing it to function as efficiently as possible.
What makes the Klevacool™ system better?
Our fan kits come with a 3 YEAR WARRANTY!
NO drilling or gluing required to mount the system.
The Klevacool™ system uses custom designed, “smart fans”, that have been built to our specifications.
The fan speed varies automatically, providing the right amount of cooling, without excess noise or power consumption.
Klevacool™ external fridge fans are RPEQ certified!
This means that all aspects of quality control, materials, design, construction & performance data have been inspected and reviewed by a Registered Paractising Engineer of Queensland & comply with or EXCEED all relevant Australian Standards.

Our variable speed fan system provides the following advantages:
More efficient, as they only draw as much power as required to cool your fridge.
Safer, because they shutdown if the blades are blocked by a foreign object - No fan burnouts!
Quieter when the ambient temperature is colder (usually at night!).
Extremely low current draw, even at full speed. No power wastage!
Fans are extremely quiet due to efficient, low speed blade design & our custom mounting system.
Fans cycle on & off less frequently, reducing annoying changes in background noise levels.
Fans are IP68 rated with RUBBER SEALED ball bearings - No dust ingress or water damage!
*
Our kits use our own design, “Klevacool™ Electronic Fan controller”:
Designed & assembled in Australia, for RV’s operating in harsh Australian conditions.
Switch selectable temperature settings to provide flexible control options.
Bypass/test switch for testing the fans or in the unlikely event of controller failure. Peace of mind!
Multicolour status LED for quick & easy visual indication of fan status.
Over-temperature monitoring & alarm if temperature gets too high. Safety first!
Seperate current protected output for an internal fridge fan system. No need for an extra fuse!
Efficient mosfet reverse polarity protection to prevent damage if incorrectly wired.
Extremely low current draw in standby mode (14mA).
Connection port for Klevacool™ remote control (available here).
Temperature sensor is built into the board, which means no dangling temperature probes.
Connector is quick & simple to disconnect if vent needs to be removed.
Controller is coated with silicon conformal coating to seal it from the elements.
*
Laser cut aluminium plate, designed to clip onto your DOMETIC rooftop vent. NO DRILLING!!
Makes fan mounting very neat & simple.
increases system efficacy by reducing or eliminating parasitic vortices.
Klevacool™ control system is mounted to the plate eliminating the need to mount a controller elsewhere.
Plate self aligns & clips on, further simplifying installation.
The fans are very simple to install using our highly detailed installation instructions.

INTERNAL FANS?
Add a set of internal fans to your order & receive an automatic discount!
(If you have a compressor type fridge, click here to view our internal fans for compressor fridges)
Internal fans mount inside your fridge & circulate the cold air.
This reduces frost & keeps all areas of your fridge cold.

What do I need to know before ordering?
Ensure you have a Dometic rooftop vent (NOT Thetford), using the pictures below.
Find 12v power behind your fridge (if you have a light in your fridge, 12v will be readily available).
Decide if you’d like to add an internal fan and/or Klevacool Remote..
Please note: VENT is NOT included!
Please also read the “important notes” below, before ordering!
Klevacool fridge fans have always been recognised for their quality.
Our fridge fan kits now come with a 3 year warranty.
The fitting of heat extracting fans to improve the efficiency of an absorption fridge is not a new idea, so what's different about the 3DprintRV Klevacool fridge fan system?
Controller bypass switch in the unlikely event of failure. Peace of mind!
Neat, professional finish.
Low standby power draw (14mA)
Self aligning, laser cut, aluminium mounting plate makes a neat & simple job of mounting the fans.
Access hatch allows for easy access to controller.
Reverse power protection built in.
SMART FANS - Our fans move up to 1640l/min EACH & vary their speed depending on system requirements. This means less noise, less wear & lower overall power consumption.
SMART FANS will simply stop if the blades are blocked & restart when they are free again. No burn outs!
IP68 rated, RUBBER SEALED ball bearings. No water or dust ingress into the electronics or bearings!
Mounting of the fans is neat & simple using our IP REGISTERED laser cut aluminium mounting plate & innovative clip-on design.
All hardware is stainless steel. No rusty screws!
Low current draw (0.35 amps in total).
A multicolour LED provides unobtrusive visual indication of what the fans are doing.
Over-temperature alarm alerts if temperature behind vent gets too high.
Simply requires 12v to be provided to the connector on the fan mounting plates. All other wiring is done.
Controller & fans are fully tested before being sent to you.
No drilling or gluing required to mount the fans.
36 months warranty.
The graph in the pictures shows the before and after performance of my Dometic fridge in a Jayco Penguin while running on 240v. I’ve marked the point on the graph where the fans were installed. The internal fridge temperature stayed below 5 degrees after the fans were installed and this was at up to 41 degrees ambient, running on 240v!
NOTE: This was our fridge & represents the best possible results. Results WILL vary from fridge to fridge.
The fans don’t cause any issues with the flame when the fridge is operating on gas.
The kit comes with quiet, high quality, brushless, smart fans that draw 0.35 amps in total.
Installation is as simple as:
Removing the vent cover dome (4 screws).
Mounting the fan plate to the vent (simply clips on).
Connecting the fans to your van battery management system or isolator switch.
Refitting the vent dome cover once the fans are fitted.
The controller automatically turns the fans on when the temperature reaches the chosen trigger point.
A multicolour LED provides unobtrusive visual indication of what the fans are doing.
There is also an over -temperature alarm that will sound if the temperature behind the vent gets too hot.
Detailed, step by step instructions with photos are provided & include my phone number for support.

Important Notes!
The vent MUST have the vertical sections, shown in the picture below, to enable the fans to mount correctly.
This fan system is specifically designed to fit the DOMETIC rooftop fridge vents, as used on some caravans.
This kit will NOT fit Thetford rooftop vents.
Fans must be installed in the upper vent, mounted on the roof.
The vents shown in the pictures are not supplied. The fan mounting plate supplied in the kit is clipped onto your existing vent.
Installation of these fans is simple, but a power supply is required for them to operate. Wiring will need to be installed from the van electrical system to the vent. 4 meters of wire is included.
We don't recommend connecting directly to the battery as this will bypass any battery low voltage protection devices in your van.
If you are unsure how to install this wiring, please consult with your local auto electrician or caravan repair shop.
Detailed installation instructions are included.
