Comments: To: Ty Graham <tyg@OZ.NET>

I am very interested in warm water for my van. All of the good ideas I've read about use the coolant as a heat source. I was wondering if any of the shadetree engineers had ever considered the heat from the refrigerator as a source for a heat exchange to warm the water in the tank. Since the refrigerator is going all the time, it wouldn't require starting up the van in the morning to have hot water.

Any feedback?
