A:Answer Hello Homey - this is Nancy at GE Appliances and we are happy to help you. We do not recommend installing a refrigerator where temperatures will go below 60 degrees F. At this temperature, the unit is less efficient and will continue to lose efficiency as the outdoor temperature decreases. At 32 degrees, there is no cooling capability at all. It is not recommended that refrigerators be used in unheated locations, such as garages, porches, or unheated rooms during periods when the temperature is likely to fall below 60 degrees F. Nor do we recommend installing a refrigerator where the temperature will exceed 110 degrees F. There is a possibility that operating the refrigerator in extremely high temperatures could cause the oil to overheat and break down, thus damaging the compressor or sealed system. There is a possibility that some harm could come to the compressor or sealed system by operating the refrigerator at temperature extremes. Below 32 degrees F, the oil could become thick and not circulate properly. Above 110 degrees F, the oil could overheat and break down. We hope this helps! Thanks for checking with us!
