But did you know It can get too
cold for your freezer to function
properly?
As winter approaches It may
be a good idea to consider best
location for your home freezer.
Research by the U. S. Depart
ment ot Agriculture has shown
that unless a home freezer Is
specifically designed to operste
In low temperatures, it should
not be placed where the temper
ature falls below 40 F. (
At the same time, placing the
freezer in a warm room may not
solve your problem. The higher
the room temperature, 'the more
the motor must run to maintain
the correct freezer temperature,
zero., This means greater operat
ing costs and more wear and
tear on the mechanism. The US
DA home-equipment specialists
report that the ideal location for
a freezer, from the operating
standpoint, Is a dry, cool, well
ventilated place,
A damp place, they point out,
is likely to cause moisture to
condense on the freezer's outer
walls and. damage the outer sur
face. The metal surfaces of the
motor, motor supports, and
springs msy also be damaged. Air
circulation to carry off the heat
of the freezer operation also is
necessary, so a freezer should not
be fitted snugly In a niche with
wslls oa three sides. If your
freezer is located in a damp area,
specialists suggest placing it on
a sturdy platform so air will cir
culate beneath it. And by add
ing heavy casters to the platform
you can move the freezer more
easily a real help when you're
cleaning.
But make sure the platform
