Choosing an Outbuilding Freezer Many people make use of a garage or outbuilding as a frozen. They're a great resource during busy times, when you need to prepare meals quickly. Freezers are designed for operation at temperatures ranging from 0 to 110 degrees Fahrenheit (-18-43 degrees Celsius). When they are placed in a non-suitable environment, they must work harder, use more energy and wear out faster. Location A freezer that is outdoors must be placed in a location that will allow it to be functioning efficiently. It is because freezing appliances perform best in cool environments. This is why it is crucial to consider this when deciding where to install the outdoor freezer. The freezer must also be protected from direct sunlight, as this can cause it to lose energy efficiency, which can result in an increase in electricity costs. Freezers that are placed in direct sunlight may also be susceptible to temperature spikes that can cause unnecessary stress on the appliance, resulting in premature wear. The location of the freezer can also be affected by accessibility and convenience. A freezer in a shed or garage that is accessible from the kitchen might be a good option. A freezer located in a shed that requires you to go outside in the snow or rain to access it might not be as convenient. A cover can protect the freezer from the elements, debris, and backyard animals. This is an especially important factor for those who live near the ocean, as salty air can be harmful to the freezer's components. Size Selecting the right size freezer is an important factor to consider when shopping. It is essential to ensure that the freezer you choose will be large enough to fit your family and your requirements. A freezer with a huge capacity could be a great investment. It can also allow you to save money by buying in bulk. As a rule of thumb it is recommended to allow 2.5 cubic feet for each household member. This will let you store a variety frozen foods, such as vegetables, meats and other proteins, desserts, drinks, and much more. To determine the best size freezer, start by taking measurements of your garage or shed to determine the amount of space you have available for a freezer. If you don't have plenty of space, you can consider an incredibly small or compact freezer, such as the GE Garage Ready 17.3 Cu Frost Free upright freezer. The freezer is compact and comes with doors which can be opened left or right. It comes with high-quality insulation to shield the freezer from extreme temperature fluctuations and ensure a consistent operation. It comes with a built-in defrost clock that removes ice on its own and prevents overflow. Frigidaire EFRF696AMZ upright freezers are larger and provide more storage space. This model is specifically designed for use in cold environments and can be used in temperatures between -10C and -18C, making it ideal for cold garages and outbuildings. It has a spacious interior that can accommodate up to 20 bags of ice, and also has removable wire shelves that can be used for storage. If you're in search of freezers that is able to withstand temperatures of ice make sure you check the specifications of the manufacturer to ensure the unit can be used in your outbuilding or garage. The manufacturer will list the freezer's temperature classification and the minimum temperature it needs to be to function safely in a non-heated environment. Certain brands, like Beko, have freezers that can operate safely even at temperatures of 15C thanks to their FreezerGuard Technology. You should always verify the warranty of the manufacturer to make sure that the freezer will stand up to the conditions of your garage or outside. Energy efficiency You'll want to select an energy-efficient model if plan to use the freezer in a shed, garage or other area that isn't climate-controlled. These models are better insulated than other freezers and won't lose as much cold air when they are opened. They are also cheaper to run, as they will use less power. You should also look for a model with low frost technology, which requires less defrosting, and can save your energy costs. You can choose from a range of energy-efficient freezers that come in a variety of sizes. They are available at traditional brick-and-mortar stores like Walmart, Best Buy, and Home Depot, as well as online retailers like Amazon and eBay. Some local utility companies offer rebates on freezers that meet certain efficiency requirements. It is important to know the size of your freezer and how much electricity it will consume to freeze food items. You can use an energy calculator in order to calculate the cost of running a freezer annually. Freezers consume close to their listed wattage when they are cooling, but this isn't always the case. Once they reach the set temperature their components will enter idle mode (such as the evaporator or compressor fan motor). When choosing a freezer, take into consideration its ENERGY STAR certification which means it meets specific energy consumption requirements set by the Environmental Protection Agency and Department of Energy. This is especially important if you are planning to store the freezer in a shed or garage that isn't climate-controlled because these freezers typically consume more energy than a standard freezer. Additionally, look for a freezer that has a power outage guarantee and a high-temperature alarm light to ensure that it will continue to function in the event of a power outage. There are also freezers that have self-defrost features, which will reduce the frequency of defrosting and your energy costs. The Right to Rent Although freezers are typically designed to be kept in a closed space, some people need an extra large freezer that they can use in their shed or garage. The freezer may be damaged or stop working if the temperature drops too low in this setting. To avoid this issue take into consideration purchasing the freezer with an assurance that covers it if it fails when it is used in an outbuilding. Many manufacturers have begun to realise that their customers are often constrained by space, and have therefore developed chest freezers that can be placed in garages or other outbuildings. These freezers have been designed with a special 'freezer protection technology' which ensures that they can function at temperatures as low as -10degC. Brands like Beko, Ice King, and Russell Hobbs all offer this kind of freezer for outbuildings.
