Sometimes we have those little epiphanies in the shower.. sometimes they come from other places. This is a home for those epiphanies.

When it is winter we cool foods with a fridge inside a heated home ... while we have a fridge outside. (feddit.org)

Am I the only one who thinks this is just hilariously idiotic?

well at least it's an additional source of heat for the home ^^ but it's a valid thought, i had the same.

the only pb with the outside cold is that it's not stable enough for food storage if it constantly goes above and below freezing

I was thinking: Why not put the fridge outside. It needs less power in the cold. And it is still standing outside ever since. But I have also a smaller japanese compressor fridge in the Kirchen for the important daily stuff.

if you have a place that's protected from the weather, it's probably a good idea, although i'm not sure how well it handles having an inner temperature that's higher than the outside

You mean lower than outside? If it is freezing outside the fridge but the food inside needs just fridge temperatures?

Higher inside the fridge than outside it. How do you plan on keeping your liquids liquid if it's -10° outside?
