A:Answer Hey there, and thanks for reaching out with this great question - we appreciate your interest in this refrigerator! This model was designed to be used in a location where the temperature ranges from a minimum of 55 degrees F to a maximum of 110 degrees F. (For optimum performance, the best range is between 60 degrees F and 90 degrees F.) We can’t recommend using the refrigerator in an area that will get down to 20 degrees F. We do regret any inconvenience that may cause; if it may be helpful, the manual has more detailed location requirements on page 4: https://files.bbystatic.com/Vfm48UHvqSvDFfMX22pY%2BA%3D%3D/D0943F52-DABA-409A-B111-AF5657099449.pdf . If you have any other questions or concerns, we’re always glad to offer assistance. Best wishes! -Sarah@Haier
