Is there such a thing as a gas powered freezer?

I know there's fridges but I've never seen a freezer.

[Alan de Enfield]

Yes - there are dozens if you do a google search .

 

You can even get a

220v AC

12v DC

24v DC

LPG

Diesel (kero)

 

5-way powered one - ideal when you run out of gas.

I bet none of them are approved by the manufacturers for use in boats though...

I'm sure they wont be approved and the Flue system may give the BSS examiner a 'wobbler', but the question was "do they exist"

 

The OP may want to put one in his allotment shed, or the garden, along side his mooring, neither of which have have any electicity

In which case - yes! There's bound to have been a gas fired ammonia absorbtion cycle freezer made at some time for commercial use

Well I made a silly assumption, that he wanted it for his boat!

 

Assumption is the mother of all cock-ups, in my line of business...

Didn't early ships on the Australia meat run use ammonia absorption refrigerators? They may have been coal fired though

Interesting. Now is there somewhere which will sell me just one, rather than ten?

[MtB]

Ah but you didn't say you only wanted one...

I wouldnt worry about a freezer for now. If the news is to be believed you wont need one, just stick your food outside
