Gas Refrigerators are a great option for almost any home - Gas Fridge explains why

Whether you are from the snowy mountains of the Yukon or the deserts of Arizona, or a place

with expensive electricity costs, refrigeration is a necessary but potentially difficult (and costly)

task. You need to keep your food cold, but generators and solar panels can cost thousands of

dollars and are reliant on daylight and gasoline respectively. Don’t you wish there was a better

alternative? Well… There is one! Gas Fridge, one of the largest Gas Refrigerator distributors in

all of the United States, is here to tell you about how a Propane or LP gas fridge can help you in

your food refrigeration woes.

Gas Refrigerators are used by many full-time homeowners as well as those who own off-the-

grid properties, like hunting cabins or weekend getaways, or any other type of faraway place.

Plus, with electricity prices rising in some areas of the United States, it’s becoming more and

more convenient to use alternative energy sources like solar panels. That alone is a great

reason why a gas fridge could be perfect for someone who lives in the suburb as well as

someone who lives in the wilderness. By getting a refrigerator that runs on LP gas, you can

actually circumvent high power bills, as an average propane refrigerator costs less that 75 cents

per day to run. That's only $275 per year! Plus, no matter where you are, a propane refrigerator

can meet the needs of nearly any individual, regardless of where his or her home is located.

As for off-the- grid customers or those in a similar area where electricity can be hard to access,

gas refrigerators are a wonderful option for ease and cost. We have personally heard stories of

how the logistics of getting gas to a remote site makes for an interesting journey; one particular

story is how a man got tired of cutting and transporting large ice cubes from a glacier to an

icebox using an ATV. Imagine the difference this individual experience when this individual no

longer had to ride 25 miles out of his way to get “fuel” for his refrigerator. No matter who you are

or what your means are, transporting a propane container (or multiple) can be easy and more

affordable than an electric equivalent. Whether by car, boat, ATV or helicopter, propane is light,

clean burning, and efficient.

The amount of propane storage can greatly vary from 5 gallons to almost 500 gallons propane

storage for more permanent or year-round locations. The possibilities and options with propane

are endless. Plus, if you live in the wilderness to get away from all the noise of the city, you’ll be

happy to know that propane refrigerators are entirely silent -- with only the sound of a small

propane flame backing the powerful refrigerator. Compare the amount of sound a propane

refrigerator makes to that of a gas burner on a stove -- only audible from less than 5 feet away.

The final kicker is that if you are lucky enough to have a natural gas well on your property, you

can refrigerate for free. What a deal!

From the cost saving benefits, to the ease of transportation and use, and the many different

shapes, sizes, and styles that they come in, there isn’t really a reason to not get a gas

refrigerator. Call Gas Fridge today to learn more about how a gas refrigerator can help you with

your food refrigeration needs. We can be reach us at 928-636- 6674 or visit our website at

Understanding what an Absorption Refrigerator is, and why should choose Gas Fridge for your next EZ Freeze Refrigerator

What is an Absorption Refrigerator? It’s a lot simpler than you might expect. Gas Fridge is here to tell you all about Absorption Refrigerators and how to make an informed purchase when shopping for off the grid refrigerators.

What exactly is an Absorption Refrigerator? In an Absorption Refrigerator, the unit refrigerates itself by moving the hot air inside to the outside of the fridge. This process uses a sealed system containing a solution mixture of ammonia, water, sodium chromate, and hydrogen that is boiled by heat. The ammonia in the system is the main driving component, causing the change from liquid to gas, and back again. This pure ammonia liquid conducts heat away from the unity using aluminum plates on the back of the fridge. This system uses no moving parts at all and is accomplished using a combination of thermodynamics and the physical properties of gases.

The system is very specific in design, meaning a slight change in piping angle can lower performance and efficiency. A small solution ingredient difference will also change the gas refrigerator performance, as well as any weak welds will shorten the fridge’s life. Strict quality control is vital toward good production results. That’s why, at Gas Fridge ou

We rate the EZ Freeze quality control as the best in the industry. EZ Freeze is the only company that produces the entire product in-house, from start to finish. EZ Freeze spends over half their time in quality control checks to make sure their product is the best it can be. And, the EZ Freeze absorption units are interchangeable at any time with a new unit, meaning that repairs are easy and cheap. When we asked about why EZ Freeze has such strict quality control measures, we weren't surprised with the answer: "We realize that most of our fridges are used in remote areas. Hard to get to and from areas. It puts a great hardship on the consumer if there is a failure and we just don't want to see that happen."

Gas Fridge Explains Why You Need a Propane Refrigerator

Gas-Fridge is the leader in propane refrigerators and your expert in knowing which unit best suits the purpose. Gas-Fridge will help you select a propane refrigerator that is perfect for remote cabins, vacation homes, hunting camps, or RV. They come in sizes ranging from 10 cubic feet up to 21 cubic feet.

Here are more reasons to own a gas fridge.

• You live off the grid. You don't like the noise an electric refrigerator makes. You have considered the efficiency of a Gas Fridge. Your home is subject to natural disasters and power outages.
• One of the most basic necessities in life is food. The need for food storage is practical, and how food is stored has an affect on your health and the length of your life. Cold food storage when done properly is important for healthy living. Consider all these reasons and you will see why a gas fridge is right for you.
• All refrigerators must run from an energy source. One of the gas fridge advantages is how easy it is to store propane and unlike electricity, it can be transported. While most homeowners run the risk of losing electricity during a thunderstorm, the propane refrigerator will continue running, keeping your perishables fresh.
• One power outage of more than two days can completely decimate your food supply in your electric fridge. With the cost of food within the fridge being upwards of $500.00, it pays to have a gas fridge as a back up unit.
• The myth that a gas refrigerator does not cool as well as an electric is not true. Not only will they run colder than an electric unit, the absorption unit has far fewer parts than an electric compressor system. Fewer parts mean less chance of a failure. Other than the thermostat, here are virtually no moving parts within the propane gas refrigeration system.

If you have chosen to live off the grid, there is not much of an alternative. Many will find that purchasing ice for coolers will become inconvenient and not cost effective. DC refrigerator solar powered units are an alternative if the area has enough sun light per day and the solar system is large enough to handle the enormous load.

“I found bad advice on the internet about Gas Refrigerators!” Gas-Fridge is here to help.

The founders and employees of Dynamx, Inc. have all enjoyed the off-grid lifestyle for over 25 years. Gas-Fridge understands the systems and usage of the propane appliances they sell, and they understand propane appliances. They have also been using propane refrigerators for over 25 years. They believe in what we sell and our staff has been trained by the manufacturers.

Gas-Fridge offers technical support by phone, and carry in service for repairs on all brands.
Occasionally we discover an article from the internet such as this one posted by The Tiny House that may need clarification.  Gas Fridge would like to point out some misinformation here.

The author should seek advice from a qualified professional, instead of someone who is not an authority. The fridge is not designed for the purpose stated in the article. It should be able to function reasonably well in its current configuration.

Look for user error or installer error. Start by testing the gas pressure. This unit switches from high to low flame to control the rate of ammonia solution circulating through the system. When gas pressure is set too high, then the low flame circuit is not low enough. This causes too much solution circulation and creates freezing.

Propane refrigerators are sensitive to gas pressure. Use a secondary regulator. Be sure to have the correct pressure from the regulator. Most other gas appliances are not that sensitive to pressure. Set the pressure spot to 11 inches of water column for your propane refrigerator, or EZ Freeze brand.

If that tests okay, then the thermostat may have been calibrated too high and the unit is switching back to high flame too early and switching back too late. EZ Freeze uses this same thermostat within both the gas refrigerator units and gas freezer units. The difference is how they calibrate them for the temperature range. Calibration for this unit may have been set leaning to a colder setting from the factory. 

This unit does not have the best thermo-insulation design between the fridge and freezer so leakage between the two spaces is a factor. This fridge was never intended for full time living in a home. It was made for an RV. RV’s are not built for efficiency; they are built for recreation or surviving away from home.
