where my van takes me.
Looking for some suggestions for ventilation,

Now that I have taken out all my rear interior, I want to solve ventilation.. I have been looking at the 14" roof top fans, But I am not sure I want some that large on the roof of this van.. I have also been looking at the 6" exhaust fans, with the option of adding 1 or 2 12v fans on the inside.. 

I have also seen a video where a guy made a duct system for the computer fans..


Thank you in advance.. hope you all are well
 
I have decided to start with this combined with opening the rear windows in my 06 caravan.

It is supposed to be here Thursday, I'll let you know what I think of it. Check out the mfg video on the Amazon listing. That's what made me decide to try it out. I had a 12v fan on my boat. It was great but drained my battery bank pretty quickly.
 
Someone mentioned utilizing the OEM ventilation system and powering it with Solar and battery power.

I don't have one of these, but this is the type I would be looking at for a Caravan roof vent:

I went with the MaxxAir Vent because Foresty Forest said so.
I have not installed it yet.  Cutting a hole in the roof does give me pause.

But if you plan to cook inside your van, you're gonna need some really good air movement.

I just thought about this possibility also, I will be removing the rear heater core, But the fan may totally be useable.. I will be posting videos to give you my updates, and what I end up coming up with..
 
Factory fans are power hogs. They are meant to be run when the engine is running. Highdesertranger
