Food will stay frozen for 36-48 hours in a fully loaded freezer if you keep the door closed. A half-full freezer will generally keep food frozen for 24 hours. If it looks like the power will be out for more than 2 - 4 hours, place refrigerated foods such as milk, dairy products, meats, fish and poultry in a cooler surrounded by ice. Perishable foods should not be left at temperatures above 40 degrees F for more than two hours.

Refrigerator-freezer combinations can be used for storing frozen food if the freezer is a true freezer (will maintain 0°F or less) and not just a freezing compartment. A better quality product will be maintained at 0°F or less. If a freezing compartment is used, store food for only one to two weeks. See similar questions...

Food should not be out of refrigeration for more than two hours because when exposed to room temperature, harmful bacteria multiply rapidly. In hot weather (above 90?F), the time is reduced to one hour. To keep food safe, place leftover food in shallow containers and refrigerate to allow for rapid cooling. The terminology used on food packages is regulated by the government to ensure that all products claiming specific terms are consistent, truthful, and accurate. See similar questions...

Delighted. We've heard some bad things about Norcold from time to time, but in our experience it has been bulletproof. We would do it again. In our case, the reality is that the staircase to the boat/bridge deck was a major selling point. We use it constantly as a convenience, and when raising or lowering the dinghy, it is an essential safety feature. Absent the stairs we'd have to leave the dink at some stage of hanging while we changed places via the pilothouse/salon route. See similar questions...

Standard coin cell batteries will provide approximately 4 nights of lighting during a power failure if the safety light is located in an area where daylight provides enough light to turn them off. If the PowerSURE safety light is in a windowless room area where no daylight is available, the power failure light will turn on whenever there is a loss of electricity. The night light will be on whenever the room lights are off and the electricity supply is normal. See similar questions...

Depending on the package you decide on, the space can be moderate to considerable. What we find is that the freezer can fit these containers well once its cleaned out from all the old TV dinners and frost bitten food items. However, we will store all meals in your refrigerator initially and leave the freezing up to your discretion. Either way, the food will be great!! See similar questions...

This depends on the number of meals you request, and the sizes of the containers, but it does generally require a considerable amount of refrigerator and freezer space. When I arrive at your home for the assessment, I'll ask for permission to peek into your refrigerator and freezer to see how much room you have available and to advise you on how much more space I'll need.

The space required will depend on your packaging choice (container and number of meals per container).

Foods stay frozen longer if the freezer remains unopened, is full, is in a cool place and is well insulated. Usually food in a loaded freezer will stay frozen for two to four days, depending on its size. A half-filled freezer will keep food frozen only about 24 hours. Cover the freezer with blankets, keeping them away from the compressor, to help hold the cold. See similar questions...

KEEP THE FREEZER DOOR CLOSED. Keep what cold air you have inside. Don't open the door any more than necessary. You'll be relieved to know that a full freezer will stay at freezing temperatures about 2 days; a half-full freezer about 1 day. If your freezer is not full, group packages so they form an "igloo" to protect each other. Place them to one side or on a tray so that if they begin thawing, their juices won't get on other food.
