Freezer units are used in households and in industry and commerce. Food stored at or below 0 °F will be safe indefinitely. | Freezer units are used in households and in industry and commerce. Food stored at or below 0 °F will be safe indefinitely. | ||
Most household freezers maintain temperatures from -10 to 0 °F (-23 to -18 °C), although some freezer-only units can achieve −30 °F (−34 °C), and lower. Refrigerators generally do not achieve lower than -10 °F (-23 °C), since the same coolant loop serves both compartments: Lowering the freezer compartment temperature excessively causes difficulties in maintaining above-freezing temperature in the refrigerator compartment. Domestic freezers can be included as a separate compartment in a refrigerator, or can be a separate appliance. Domestic freezers are generally upright units resembling refrigerators, or chests. Many upright modern freezers come with an ice dispenser built into their door. | Most household freezers maintain temperatures from -10 to 0 °F (-23 to -18 °C), although some freezer-only units can achieve −30 °F (−34 °C), and lower.
