Not sure what FW was thinking but there is literally no airflow in the head of the 278! Currently, I have a plug in fan in there but that does not cool the area down nor does it remove moisture... Has anyone routed air into the head, and if so where did you add the vent?

We just leave the window open with the screen installed. If you go in to use, just pull it down and then open back up when finished.
