in-situ fridge extra insulation
My standard built in fridge in a Bavaria Ocean lacks adequate insulation especially towards the hull. the compressor is unable to reduce the temperature inside the box by more than a 7 degree difference to the external temp. I want to fill the space around the box wth insulation but access is very limited.Sprayed foam would be the obvious choice but I am worried it could degrade with water contact - the hull deck joint above is not water tight.Or that it would not spread to fill the total space behind the box. So what would be the best material to use?
