Hi
Our 370 fridge struggles in the Med climate. The ice box is efficient & works well although it’s unable to maintain a temp in the main fridge below 9-10c ( White not chilled sufficiently for the crew!) 
We have tried solutions such as extra insulation behind the door, and an air fan by the compressor albeit with limited success. We are considering a hull/ keel cooled solution which has been recommended but interested to hear if anyone has installed such an item. If so, the practicalities of undertaking the conversion & success of the installation.
Many thanks for any feedback or thoughts

It’s because the fridge of the Hanses have almost no insulation. (1 cm or so) More people here, like I, have insulated their fridge, which helps a lot. It’s a serious job, but it can be done.

You’ll find many threads on this on the 370, 400 & 430 forums. Try this one for starters  https://www.myhanse.com/improving-the-fridge_topic11141_page1.html" rel="nofollow - https://www.myhanse.com/improving-the-fridge_topic11141_page1.html

Tip it’s often simplest to use your search engine and search something like “MyHanse 370 fridge” rather than use the MyHanse site search. 

Best of luck with the fix.
