When can you place a freezer in a non-isolated environment?
Do you have space in the shed or garage for a freezer? That's useful, because you can store a lot of frozen vegetables, pizzas, and popsicles. But not every freezer works in a non-isolated environment. That's why you should check the minimum and maximum ambient temperature of a freezer. In this article, you can read what you have to keep in mind when you're looking for a freezer for a non-isolated environment.
Minimal ambient temperature
The minimum ambient temperature of a freezer indicates the temperature to which the appliance works. If it's too cold, the freezer might not work properly. Is your shed or garage not isolated and does it get really cold during the winter? Choose a model with a minimum ambient temperature of 0°C or less. That way, you're sure your frozen french fries won't defrost.
Maximum ambient temperature
Non-isolated spaces get very cold quickly, but also heat up quickly. That's why you should check the maximum temperature a freezer can handle. For non-isolated spaces, we recommend a model with a maximum ambient temperature of 38°C or higher. That way, your freezer will still work if the sun shines on your shed or garage all day long during a hot summer day.
