Very bad news. I've been told that it was not a caravan fridge that was the fault. It was a portable gas operated fridge that was working as it should. The problem is that it was inside the caravan and there was no excape for the carbon monoxide it produced.

We run a three way fridge full time on gas when we are at the block because we dont have power. They need to be properly vented though and usually come with some kind of flue kit to do so.
