In order to disinfest materials from all stages of insects, a freezer which can 
maintain and hold at least -20°F is mandatory.  A chest freezer doesn’t lose 
much cold when you open the door to load it vs. an upright one. The object is 
to lower the materials to minus 32°F within four hours after putting the 
materials in the freezer.  This scenario beats the insects from being able to 
build up their natural antifreeze.

Dear Colleagues,

I need to purchase an Ultra-low Temperature chest freezer.

So far I've gotten quotes for :
So-Low Chest style freezer Model CH40-22
Thermo Fisher Scientific Revco Model ULT2050-10-A -40C Chest Freezer
Scien Temp34-22A Standard Low Temperature Chest Freezer

Any recommendations, thoughts, comments, likes or dislikes for an ULT chest 
freezer ?

Advance thanks, Ann
