Your Freezer Doesn't Depend on the Insulating Properties of Ice

The Case for Removing Ice 

We are often asked, if ice is insulating, and we want our freezers to stay cold, shouldn't we keep the ice?  Shouldn't a frost-and ice-filled freezer use less energy?

The answer to this is no.  Ice build-up negatively impacts freezer performance and energy consumption.  But this week, we're not going to tell you why.  We're asking you to tell us why, for bonus points!

Write to us at info@mygreenlab.org with your answers. Anyone with the correct answer - in your own words, don't just send us a link to a website please - will receive 3 extra bonus points on the Freezer Challenge score sheet.  We will publish the best answers in our next blog post.

​Stay tuned...
