    I shut mine off when it gets consistently cold.
    Needs a cold weather kit or a purpose built garage fridge.
    That’s why I bought a small freezer for the cellar.

    Good morning. Ran out of propane at midnight but the electric blanket saved the day, until 33* just got to me. LOL

    Me too. I wish I had a nickel for every time I struggled with an electrical fixture or device and I said: "This was designed by an engineer that never wore a tool belt or worked in the field!"

    Eventually it will need to keep stuff from not freezing. It’s a kitchen remodel, he will be down 3-4 months. I told him to heat the damn garage. It’s not that he’s an engineer, it’s he’s OCD to the 10th power. He’s got 10’ walls that are within an 1/8” top to bottom, planned by hand. The fridge is going to Habitat for Humanity eventually. Dorm fridges are less than a $100. This is a 60k remodel.:annoyed:
