[QUOTE="mgssamn, post: 3795477, member: 46421"] I have seen the temps of 110 for recommended high max room temp. (if you are interested in new one for sure.) Also, as you know it cools down at night,- so the inside bldg temp would be in your max range less than 8-10 hours of the day and only in the summer hot months that long when it is 80+ by 10 -11 am. I have had a freezer and a refrigerator in my always unconditioned garage for all my adult years with no issues. Granted, it probably doesn't get over 100 during hot days unless outdoor over 90-95 outside, It will be warmer than outside by 5-10 always. I assure you the storage unit will be warmer than my garage. I am not saying you wont have problems, but might be just fine. I would not do anything other than put it in there. ( no added insulation etc. ) You must give it breathing room, and not pack it in. If you are close to unit, check it every other day until you are comfortable. It would be a bonus if your storage shed has daytime shade, which most dont of course. my son in law had freezer in his little uninsulated wood shed 12 x8 - in his back yard for 8 years before he moved from there. now in garage. I am not expert, only a user. I would do it if I had a need. Maybe a real refrigeration person could give you an answer you can trust. [/QUOTE]
