I asked this question a few months ago but never got an answer. That upsets me, especially considering I live but a stone's throw from appliance maker Whirlpool's headquarters. So it's either march over there and pound on their door or torture you again, dear readers, and right now it's too cold to go anywhere. Sooo...
On days like today, with wind chills firmly below zero, why can't my refrigerator's contents be cooled with outside air instead of a running a compressor to make even more cold air? Don't give me all that EnergyStar appliance crap; I could cool my milk for FREE if someone figured out how to transport a tiny bit of that already-frigid air to where it can do some good.
Moving cold air into a warm environment is something my windows seem to do rather naturally. So what's the problem with appliance engineers, anyway?
