good idea ratsathome. I was using the heat from the fridge to heat but then I discovered my chamber is so well insulated it takes about 10 watts element  to heat it so Im turning my fridge around and putting a hole in the side so the fan can draw cold in via a thermostat.  Hopefully without damaging the fridge :P :D

I have about 10 meter brewbelt for the heating. The duct will have a shut off valve/door. I have about 2m x 50mm flex duct
