The Best Freezers For An Outbuilding

Store More, Waste Less With Extra Freezer Storage

An essential for every home, we couldn’t do without refrigeration appliances to keep food cool and stored safely. With more time being spent at home and a tendency towards meal preparation to allow for the busier weeks, it can be hugely beneficial to have additional freezer storage. You’ll save time with less frequent supermarket trips or food deliveries and be able to store more food. You’ll feel more organised knowing that you have meals prepared you can quickly put in the oven in case of unexpected guests. Plus, you’ll waste less food by popping items in the freezer that wouldn’t otherwise get used before their use-by date.

Baby It’s Cold Outside

Some homes have the luxury of a utility room or a large kitchen that can house multiple appliances. Sometimes, due to space constraints, if the additional freezer needs to be kept in the garage or an outhouse, it’s important to know which freezers are guaranteed to continue to perform optimally in colder environments.

Whilst we’re lucky in the UK that the temperature doesn’t tend to drop as low, many freezers are capable of being stored in temperatures as low as -15°C. However, this doesn’t necessarily mean that the manufacturer’s warranty will cover them being kept in garages or cold buildings should they fail, unless they are fit for purpose, or the building has been insulated and is climate controlled.

If you need a new refrigeration appliance or would like help understanding the different technologies and styles on the market, our handy buyer's guides will help guide you through which fridge, freezer or fridge freezer is best for your home and lifestyle needs.
