As far  as putting a fan in the city water port, that will help exhaust some
of the  hot air, but for me, it was not worth it due to dust and water
intrusion.  The flap outside does not seal completely, so if you choose to
put a fan  there, you may want to redesign the flap, too.






No  problem on my install !  I sealed all around the fan housing with
Fiberglas  insulation.  The only path in and out is through the fan.  When the  fan
is stopped and the flap closed there is no chance of anything getting  in
there.
