GuestHouse Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Except for the fact that the Fidge is kicking out heat at the back and the fan motor is kicking out heat too. But it will feel cool for a short while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MW72 Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 As nothing is 100% efficient you can bet that it will be pumping more heat out the back than cooling from the front. You are actually heating your room up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most important role of air con is removing the humidity, you're creating it Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sipi Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Cut a hole in the wall so the front half is inside and the back half is outside. Wind the thermostat up and it might work as long as you defrost it regularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im going to replace the compressor with a hamster and see if that gets it going. Frigging thang ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lemonjelly Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 I just soak my tee shirt in water every hour or so, seriously guys, for those of you with no aircon etc and suffering heat stress at the moment, it can save you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shagorillaHotel Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 switch off the lights, live in the dark or by those little 3 Wat lamps you can plug into a socket. lights produce lots of heat. water that can evaporate to absorb heat. put it near your bed head at night.

dbrenn Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 The first The first law of thermodynamics, also known as Law of Conservation of Energy, states that energy cannot be created or destroyed in an isolated system. In simple terms, this means that the your fridge is pumping as much hot air out of the back as cool out of the front. More hot air in fact - the energy that is used to run the compressor will add to to the heat that is being moved from the front of the fridge to the back.

sipi Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Actually climbing inside the fridge is more popular than you think. This is my 4 year old last Songkran. If the fridge was bigger I would have joined him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slipperylobster Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 (edited) a good air conditioner in Thailand is probably the best thing you could buy for yourself. Nothing good in that fridge...I would sell it and opt out for the air. BTW, I spent many years in the Philippines without an air conditioner. It was traumatic, most of the year. Cannot figure out what I was thinking....as I would happily spend the price of one in the bars...monthly. Now I am happy to stay home a bit....in comfort.....and am not the bar fly alcoholic that I used to be.

The presence of ceiling vents means that you no longer have to worry about the first law of thermodynamics as your room is not a closed system. The additional heat created by your fridge is allowed to escape via convection out of the vents, while the cooler air is left behind. With no vents, thanks to the additional heat dissipated by your fridge compressor, the layer of hot air will become thicker and you will eventually feel hotter than you would have felt just sitting in front of a fan, with the fridge door closed. Using a conventional fan will save on your electricity bill too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
