Want to know how to recharge your refrigerator yourself? It's really not that difficult. In this video we take you through the process of making sure you have just the right amount of refrigerant in your system.

This is the third and final part in our mini series on how refrigeration works.


As any of our longtime viewers know we also have a solar panel and battery driven air conditioner onboard. It's something I developed and has been working well for us here in the tropics. It looks like a company might pick it up as a product. That means you could have AC in your boat without a generator that's no harder to install then an isotherm unit.
There will be a video on that soon.
