I have a chest freezer that i want to place outside but need to l

The SUPER button on a Skandiluxe chest freezer is typically used when you need to freeze food quickly, such as when you've just added a large amount of unfrozen food to the freezer. The SUPER function causes the freezer to operate at its coldest temperature for a period of time, which helps to freeze the food more quickly. After the desired amount of time, you can turn off the SUPER function to return the freezer to its normal operating mode.

Wash it out with a mixture of 1 ounce ECO friendly bleach mixed in 1 quart of hot water.

as its a chest freezer you have no auto defrost,so you must do it your self.make sure all food is wrapped/heat sealed bags.to stop moisture/frost from building up.use a freezer thermometer to set at
-18C and do not over fill,if you live in a high humidity area then every other month is about right.DO NOT DEFROST WITH STEAM OR HOT AIR.USE CAR DE ICER .then dry thoroughly.

Hello,
Your freezer has a air tight seal all around it when it is tightly closed...
All you need to do is make sure that you do not open the freezer while painting or for a few days afterwards.
The smell will then not get to your food.

This is well with in factory specifications. Hot air rises and cold air drops. Because a chest freezer does not have a fan to circulate the air it is normal for the basket to be warmer than the bottom of the freezer. The bottom of the freezer is used for food you want to keep for a longer period of time.What you store in the basket is food you will freeze for a short period of time. Ice cream should not be kept in the basket. As you fill your freezer with food you will find that the temperature will equal out because the frozen food will take up the place of the frozen air which will give you a more stable freezer temperature.
Try your test when you have it full of food.

It seems the place that I purchased my GEV70 (Explorer LLC in San Diego) has gone out of business and I need someone to fix my GEV70 that won't lite any more. Were you able to find someone to work on yours? If so, who?
Thanks

youyr best bet would be to build a frame that the casters are welded to and there are no holes in the outer shell of the freezer. some L shaped angle would work nicely for this application and then there would be plenty of support for when the freezer is loaded up with product. Be sure that teo of the casters are lockable and two in the swivel freely.

ice cream is always the last to freeze and a temp of minus -10 degrees is usually required to get it to get hard. if you put the ice cream in the door it will be especially tough to freeze. a good thermometor is a good investment as you can observe the temps. usually ten degrees or 20 degrees is what they run. yes they do cycle on and off as long as they hold temps thats good. the outside of the freezer gets warm because the hot compressed refrigerant is spread through piping near its surface giving up its heat of compression . setting the stat to max will freeze the ice cream eventually but utility bill suffers . good luck

it should be warm to the touch but not so hot you cant. and also depending on how long the freezer is running and how warm it is where the freezer is will effect how hot the outside is. the reason the outside of the freezer is hot is because thats how the freezer releses its heat from the refrigerant. the longer it runs or the harder it has to work the more heat it has to hive off. so unless the freezer is not cooling there is nothing to worry about.
