They're a great resource during busy times, when you must prepare meals quickly. + +Freezers operate between 110 and 0 degrees F. If they are placed in a location that is not conducive to their operation they will have to work harder and consume more energy. + +Location + +The location of an outdoor freezer should be in a place that it can function effectively. It is because freezing appliances work best in cool conditions. This is the reason it is essential to consider this when deciding where to install the outdoor freezer. The freezer should be shielded from direct sunlight since this could reduce its energy efficiency, resulting in a higher electric cost. Freezers that are placed in direct sunlight could be susceptible to temperature spikes that can put unnecessary strain on the appliance and result in premature wear. + +Convenience and accessibility can also influence the location of the freezer. A freezer located in a shed or garage that is accessible from the kitchen could be a great option. However, a freezer that is in a separate shed, that requires a trip outside in the rain or snow to access, might not be as efficient as one located indoors. + +A cover can protect the freezer from the elements, debris, and backyard animals. This is a crucial factor for those who live near the ocean, where salty air can be detrimental to the freezer's components. + +Size + +When you shop, it is crucial to select the appropriate size freezer. You want to be sure the freezer is large enough to meet your needs and can be able to accommodate the food consumption of your family. A freezer with a high capacity is an investment that will allow you to save money when you purchase in large quantities. + +A good rule of thumb is to allow 2.5 cubic feet of storage space per household member. This will allow you store a wide variety of frozen foods, such as meats and vegetables, and desserts drinks, as well as other foods that are high in protein. To find the right size freezer, start by measuring your shed or garage to determine how much space you have available for a freezer. + +If you're looking for a space-saving solution think about an upright or compact freezer such as the GE Garage Ready 17,3 Cu Frost Free. This freezer can fit in an area that is small and features doors that can open either direction. It has high-quality insulation that shields the freezer from extreme temperatures and ensures constant operation. It comes with a built-in defrost clock that removes ice on its own and prevents overflow. + +Larger freezers, like the Frigidaire EFRF696 AMZ upright freezer, offer plenty of storage space for your favourite drinks and food items. This model is ideal for colder environments. It is able to operate in temperatures ranging from between -10C and 18C. It is spacious inside that can accommodate up 20 bags of ice and also has removable wire shelves that can be used to store items in a variety of ways. + +If you're looking for an appliance that is able to withstand temperatures of ice be sure to check the specifications of the manufacturer to make sure the unit can be used in your garage or outbuilding. Most manufacturers list the freezer's climate class and the coldness it is able to be operated in an unheated setting. Certain brands, like Beko have freezers that operate in temperatures of -15C using their FreezerGuard technology. However, it is important to check the warranty of the manufacturer to be sure the freezer is able to withstand your specific garage or other outbuilding conditions. + +Energy efficiency + +If you are going to use an outbuilding freezer in a garage or shed that isn't climate-controlled it is recommended to search for an energy-efficient model. These models will be more in insulation than other freezers and won't lose as many cold air when they are opened. They are also more efficient to run as they will consume less power. It is also recommended to look for a model with low frost technology, which requires less defrosting, and can save you energy costs. + +You can choose from a wide range of energy-efficient freezers that come in a variety of sizes. They are available at traditional brick-and-mortar stores such as Walmart, [Frydge](https://www.frydge.uk/) Best Buy, and Home Depot, as well as online retailers like Amazon and eBay. Certain local utility companies offer rebates on freezers that meet specific efficiency requirements. + +The size of a freezer impacts its energy consumption, so it is important to know how much electricity you'll require for the amount of food you'll be freezing. You can utilize an energy calculator to estimate the cost of running a freezer annually. + +Freezers are within their advertised power consumption when they're actively cooling. However, this is not an ongoing process. When they reach their set temperature, their components will be in idle mode (such as the evaporator and compressor fan motor). + +Consider the ENERGY STAR rating when you are choosing a freezer. This certification indicates that the freezer meets certain energy consumption guidelines that are set by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Department of Energy. This is particularly crucial if you plan to use the freezer in an uncontrolled area such as a shed or garage. These units tend to use more energy than standard freezers. + +Also, look for freezers with a warranty against power outages and a high temperature alarm or light. This will ensure that they continue to function even if there is a power outage. There are also freezers that feature self-defrost functions that will decrease the frequency of defrosting and your energy costs. + +Warranty + +Although most freezers are designed to be kept inside, some people require an extra large model that can be put in their shed or garage. The freezer could fail or even break when the temperature is too low in this type environment. To avoid this, consider investing in the freezer with an assurance that covers it in the event of failure when it is used in an outbuilding. + +Many manufacturers have realized that their customers have limited space. They have produced chest freezers which can be safely stored in garages or outbuildings. These freezers are built with a 'freezer protection technology' which means they can operate even at temperatures as low as -10degC. Brands such as Beko, Ice King, and Russell Hobbs all offer this kind of freezer for outbuildings. + +Some companies, like Montpellier, have specialized in outdoor freezers. It has a 99-litre freestanding chest freezer in white that can be used in outbuildings and garages. It is assessed as A+ energy efficient and has FreezerGuard. It is also covered by NordMende's 3 year standard warranty. The site is a reputable online retailer that has received positive customer reviews and has been operating since 2014. It is also an associate of Trusted Shops. \ No newline at end of file
