I've had clients freeze water outside for years and bring the ice (in
gallon jugs) in to the fridge. It cuts the run time by at least half
and is free. I've also done the chest style freezer conversion to
fridge, but people don't like that as much.
Its hard to use the space.

Hi Dave,
I've been living for years with an ice chest and a freezer for
"refrigeration" in my house. The freezer is a tiny chest style, which
I keep in the cold shed and freeze gallon bottles. I exchange them
once a day and keep the ice chest in my kitchen nice and cool. I bet
you could do it without the freezer in Vermont!
Blessings,
Kelly

I'm having difficulty finding a RF in the 16 to 20 cu ft range that
uses less than 350kWh/yr. All of the GE units listed by Energy Star
as 300 to 311kWh/yr are no longer being manufactured according to my
local appliance dealers.
I see a Fridgidaire 18.2 cu ft that uses 335kWh/yr (reviews that I
see on this unit complained of loud clunky noises).
Sun Frost units are too pricey for this application.
Any recommendations?
Thanks,
Dave
