Norcold 2118 ss in front kitchen

Has anyone had a problem with the refrigerator shouting down do to over heating? We have found that the vent in the roof is inadequate for letting the heat out. Does anyone have a fix or work around for this?

Try looking here: http://thenorcoldguy.com/norcold-technical-blog/

I have a 2118 also but vented out the side of the kitchen slide. I could not get it below 40 in the fridge unless the outside air temp is about 50 or below. I have not experienced a shut down...

You guys basically have two 8 cuft fridges side by. I hope they made the venting twice as big to account for that. Sounds like they need powered top vents...assumìng that they were installed per norcold installation specs which I would be checking first. Good luck. John
