Default Re: Can You use the Freezer (in emergency) to cool hot apartment?

Even if the refrigerator didn't work on heat exchange, the motor is not designed to run continuously. Also the coils will also become so coated in ice that it will fail to run. Air conditioners rely on fans to push the air through, which a refrigerator doesn't have. Not enough cooling capacity.
