PAGE :i - PLAIN DEALER-WEDNESDAY, MARCH 9, 1977 Protect Freezer From Extreme Heat-Cold A home freezer dressed in red flannels sounds ridiculous. But did you know that your freezer will not function properly if it gets too cold? Research by the U.S. Department of Agriculture shows that unless a home freezer is specifically designed to operate in low temperatures, it should not be placed where the temperature falls below 40 degrees F. Placing the freezer in a warm room may create other problems. The higher the room temperature, the more the" motor must run to maintain the correct freezer temperature which is 0 degrees F. Higher temperatures mean greater operating costs and more wear on th?*freezer. According to Nancy Moore, University of Illinois home economist, the ideal location for a freezer is a dry, cool, and well-ventilated room. A damp place is likely to cause con­ densation on the freezer's outer walls and damage the outer surface. The metal surfaces of the motor, motor supports, and springs can also be damaged. Air circulation to carry off the heat from the freezer motor is also necessary. A freezer should not be fitted snugly in a niche with walls on three sides. If your freezer is located in a damp area, put it on a sturdy platform, so air will circulate beneath it, suggests Mrs Moore. By adding heavy casters to the platform you can move the freezer more easily - a real help when you're cleaning. A strong floor is another requirement for freezer placement. The freezer itself is heavy. A full load can add several hundred pounds. Though convenience of location is a point to consider, it is not of major importance because freezers are usually opened once or twice a day. There is no single location that is best on all counts, following are factors to con­ sider : --Kitchens and utility rooms are convenient from the standpoint of use; however, you might be using space needed for other equipment. They are also usually warm rooms and the freezer operation will add even more heat. -Basements offer more space and are usually cool areas. However, food must then be carried up and down stairs and some basements are very damp. -Garages and porches are fairly convenient, but they may or" may not meet dryness and temperature requirements. Another problem connected with freezers is when they malfunction or become un­ plugged by accident. In either of these events you have a problem. A freezer will usually hold its temperature after going off for approximately 48- 72 hours depending on the original temperature, the types of food products in it (lots of meat will hold low tem­ peratures longer) and whether it is an upright or chest model. Some foods can be refrozen. To find out what to do and how, contact the Extension office in McHenry county at 11909 McConnell road, Wood­ stock, or call 338-3737 or 4747. Ask for Bulletin No. 321 "What To Do When Your Freezer Stops". The Extension Service is for the use of any McHenry county resident. Women of •r the Moose n • M ... »• .
