Fridge Vent Insect Covers

[JAbraham03]

I used the search link and only found one or two things relating to this. I am trying to find the insect covers for the vents that they used on the High Country with the 4 door fridge. It is a set of 3 vents in each row. the sides are 2.5" in length and the center one is 20". Keystone wasnt sure of where these can be found or the parts store they directed me to either. Wondering if anyone makes a kit for these or do people just buy the center vent (I have already) and make the smaller side pieces?

Thanks,

John

If you can't find any that fit you could possibly make some from 1/8" Hardware cloth. Seems odd they call it cloth. It's actually metal screen.

I fabricated mine using 1/8" hardware cloth. tied on with stainless wire and edge sealed with caulking. no bugs for 5 years'-----Lou-----

I had mine installed on the High Country when I bought it. Not sure if they were off the shelf or custom made at the dealer.
When I was having my refrigerator issues, the tech took them off. He said they inhibit air flow and the fridge needed all the air it can get.
You should call them and ask. If the screens are "off the shelf" they should be able to mail them to you.

I called Keystone and the tech guy was helpful but didnt know of any. Sent me to a supply store they recommended and said if they dont have them no one will. They researched it and nothing on their end either. I can make then just was hoping for a straight bolt on / zip tie application.

Thanks!

I used 1/8" hardware cloth (square wire mesh), hand formed to cover openings and fastened with silicone caulking material. working great for 2+ years.

Thanks for all the replies, looks like after talking to Keystone and Dometic I am going to be making a set.

Hi Guys - any updates on this? I have a 2022 Arcadia 3660 and we have a ton of wasps at my house and was looking for screens for all the vents

If your fridge is still under warranty, putting those screens on the vents will reduce airflow and void the warranty if the fridge fails.
Both Dometic and Norcold recommend cheap flea collars.
