Refrigerator root cellar chimney vent
Two drill holes and a few minutes with the jig saw was all it took to
create the new chimney hole for the refrigerator
root cellar.
I also removed the foam and plastic barrier that separates the freezer
from the rest of the refrigerator. One of the metal shelves slid right
into its place, which will provide plenty of open space for the cool
air to flow while at the same time working as a sturdy surface to store
apples on.
