All types of freezers are not meant to be placed in a hot garage for energy efficiency, however I have my Frigidaire chest manual freezer in my garage for the past 14 years, still runs but due to the high humidity of the garage moisture forms on the outside, I would try to keep it wiped down but it was a loosing battle after so many years. The moisture caused my door hinges to start rusting and it was then forming moisture around the seal causing ice to form and the door of the chest had a gap damaging the hinges this past year and is just about rusted all the way through; so I bought this upright frost free a month ago and placed it inside; hoping I will keep it beautiful exterior with no rusting.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hello there, cjv. For the most efficient operation, the freezer should be located where surrounding temperatures will not exceed 110°F (43°C). However, temperatures of 32°F (0°C) and below will NOT affect operation. Additionally, compressor heaters are not recommended. Hope this helps! -Alexis
