Warehouse Appliance discusses the freezer section of your gas refrigerator

How you use the freezer section of your gas refrigerator will affect the efficiency of the entire unit. Warehouse Appliance offers these tips about the freezer section of your gas refrigerator.

Gas refrigerators are designed to be a great solution for off-grid use. They are an excellent choice where electric service is not available. They are a big plus in areas in which there are frequent power outages.

One of the most important things to know about using a gas refrigerator is that you should always have something in the freezer and refrigerator compartments for the thermostat to sense the temperature. Running a gas refrigerator with an empty freezer (or refrigerator compartment) will confuse the thermostat. The unit will use much more fuel, because the thermostat will cycle on more often. You want your gas fridge to reach the desired temperature quickly and maintain it effectively. You can make this happen by loading the freezer and refrigerator with frozen milk jugs full of water. Make sure the jugs are not filled to the brim; there needs to be room to allow the water to expand as it turns into ice.

Here are some other important tips:

• Your gas refrigerator's freezer compartment is not designed for freezing large quantities of food quickly.
• All food items should be pre-frozen before being placed into the freezer compartment.
• Keep the refrigerator as full as possible, leaving a little air space between packages.
• Keep your gas refrigerator out of direct sunlight.
• All propane fridges are "manual defrost." Defrost when the absorber fins inside the refrigerator compartment are iced over without space between them.

Warehouse Appliance hopes these tips about the freezer section of your gas refrigerator are helpful to you.

Warehouse Appliance discusses absorption refrigeration

At Warehouse Appliance, we have spent years educating homeowners on the benefits of gas refrigerators, but how do they work? They work on the principle of absorption refrigeration, but first, we need to define what absorption refrigeration means.

Simply put, absorption refrigeration “absorbs” the heat inside the fridge.
Removing the heat makes the air inside the fridge cold. The absorption unit or “Cooling Unit” is located in the back of the fridge in a sealed box which contains an array of steel pipes.

Both propane and natural gas are commonly used in absorption refrigerators.
The gas is used to heat the absorption unit. The heat produced by the gas, which is located at the bottom of the unit, activates a chemical mixture inside the cooling unit. When hot, this mixture changes from a liquid into a vapor and begins moving to the top of the unit in the same way coffee is made in a percolator.

Once at the top of the unit, the chemical mixture - which is now ammonia vapor - condenses into liquid ammonia. Now in the liquid state, the ammonia begins pouring down the steel pipes. The pipes, which are in a zig-zag pattern, go through the freezer compart where the liquid ammonia begins absorbing the heat.

Because it is at the top of the refrigerator, the liquid ammonia absorbs the heat in the freezer compartment first and continues flowing down to the fridge. If the ammonia has not reached its maximum absorption in the freezer it will continue to absorb heat from the refrigerator as it moves down the pipes. This process is the reason the freezer cools down before the lower part of the refrigerator.

Now you know the basics of absorption refrigeration. If you have questions about gas refrigerators or freezers for your home or cabin, call Warehouse Appliance at 928-636-1955. Learn more at http://warehouseappliance.com.

Warehouse Appliance talks about the importance of propane freezers for the hunting cabin

Gas refrigerators and freezers are becoming more and more abundant among homeowners with off-grid properties and for weekend sportsmen in their hunting cabins. Whether you have a cabin on the prairie, the coast, or up in the mountains, you need dependable, reliable, and affordable refrigeration for your food.  It’s imperative to keep your food cold (safe) but solar panels and generators can cost thousands. Warehouse Appliance recommends a better alternative: the LP (propane) gas freezer.


Benefits of a propane freezer: 

Extra storage
With a propane freezer in your cabin, you can stock up on frozen foods from your wholesale grocer, freeze the wild game from your hunting conquest, and even keep extra bread from getting moldy or stale while it’s left sitting on the counter.

Quiet operation
The options and possibilities with propane are numerous, including how quietly a propane freezer operates. If you're living in the country or wilderness for peace and quiet, you're going to be happy to learn that propane freezers and refrigerators are entirely quiet except for the whisper of a small propane flame.

Affordability
Not only are they quiet but they are affordable to run. On average a 12-cubic foot gsd refrigerator will consume approximately 1.5 pounds of propane per day. If you're using an even smaller unit, like one that is about 4 cubic foot, it will consume less than a pound of propane per day.

Fuel
And no matter how remote you are or how you get there (by truck, ATV, boat or plane) transporting propane is much easier than its electrical equivalent.

The advantages are nearly endless, so if you're looking into outfitting your hunting cabin with a propane freezer, call the experts at Warehouse Appliance today at 928-636-1955. To learn more about the difference propane appliances can make for you, visit us at http://warehouseappliance.com.

Gas Freezers vs Solar Freezers

There are two types of freezers used in off-grid living.

The two types of freezers used are gas powered or DC powered. Both are produced with a high insulation value to create the best efficiency. The major considerations between a Propane Gas Freezer and a DC Electric Freezer are initial cost and availability of the power source. The power source being DC, propane gas, or natural gas. Warehouse Appliance brings you some facts about each.

If solar energy, wind energy, or hydro energy is available or a possibly at your location, then the DC electric freezer initial cost will be low and this will be the best choice. If none of these DC energy sources are available and purchasing the equipment to capture the DC Electricity is necessary, then the initial cost of the DC unit can easily double. The freezer must have power available at all times to keep the food storage at good freezing temperatures. This usually means that these freezers will require a battery bank for power storage during night in the case of solar powered, or when the wind is not blowing in the case of wind generated power. In some cases of hydro power, batteries may not be needed. Solar power is not free. Solar power requires batteries and batteries do wear out and must be replaced. This must be considered when doing cost analysis.


This is where the possibility of a gas freezer may be best. Gas Freezers can operate from stored LPG (Propane) gas or piped in Natural Gas. In some cases, a natural gas well is available on the property site and a natural gas freezer would be ideal. An un-metered well means free power to the natural gas freezer. Propane gas is supplied either by truck to a permanent tank on the property or smaller portable tanks that can be transported and filled at a filling site. Permanent tanks are available in a variety of sizes ranging from 100 gallons to over 1000 gallons. The freezer can operate from any size tank. The question is, for how long. It is typical for a propane freezer to use approximately 2 to 3 gallons of LPG per 7 days.

What are some of the other differences? Performance, portability, and availability.

Performance between a DC powered or compressor driven unit versus a Gas Freezer or absorption system unit are only different in what is called "recovery times". This is the time it takes for the temperatures to come down or recover to the thermostat set temperature. Both types will get as cold as one another, but the compressor driven unit has the advantage in recovery speed. It is estimated to be four times faster than that of an absorption freezer.

If you open the door or lid of either freezer to retrieve some food goods then the recovery times will only be minutes for either unit. In this case the differences between the two types is of not much concern. When putting non frozen goods into the freezer, this is when the difference of recovery speed shows up. The greatest difference of recovery speed shows when the units are started up from an ambient air temperature state. A typical chill down time for a DC Solar Freezer will be approximately 2 hours whereas the propane gas freezer may take up to 8 hours.

Both units can be portable. The Propane Gas Freezer is very portable due to the nature of the propane being in tanks. The DC freezer is also portable if the unit is operated by a portable power source such as batteries of a vehicle or a small solar system. The weight of the unit is another consideration. Gas freezers are heavier by at least 80 lbs. due to the absorption system weight.

Currently there is a very limited number of manufactures for both types. The DC Solar Freezers are available from a handful of manufacturers and only in chest style. The gas absorption freezers are only available from one manufacturer and only in upright configuration.

This brings up the last comparison. Chest style versus upright style. There are two arguments. You can decide which makes more sense. Chest style units do not allow as much cold air to escape since the lid is opening at the top and cold air falls. Upright freezers are usually open for less time since the goods are staring you in the face and are more accessible than the buried goods in the chest style. Furthermore, if the freezer is full of food then there is less air to fall out when the door is opened.
