I want to keep this refrigerator outside in a pool area. Temperatures range from high 90s to 70s. How well with this work?

I'm not sure, but when the temp. get into the 80's+ I would think it would put the motor and comp. in trouble trying to keek things cold. I know they make small refrigators for work shops which are made for higher temp's. Best of luck

Our house ranges from 70-90 in the summer. Our refrigerator has worked like a champ. We only keep beverages in it, but they are always cold.

I wouldn't put the unit out in the direct sun, but if you kept it on the patio but in the shade and slightly above the ground I would think it would be okay. Also getting the unit wet would not a be a good idea hence my idea of getting it off the ground.

I wish I could help you. My Danby is in an office and keep milk very cold, but temps here don't get above 74. Before I bought my unit, I did see some other reviews where the owners kept the fridge in a garage or workshop and none complained about temp. But again, I wouldn't know from personal experience. Good luck!!

Ours is off our dock in a lake and works like a charm - the temp varies so can't see why it wouldn't work perfectly for a pool.

My pool is 25,000 +/- and is in the Northeast. I can raise the temp about a degree an hour and yes it can be installed outside and the fellow who did mine said do not cover it in the off season.

78 degrees is the coldest, I bought to small of a chiller for a 250 gal system. there is some noise to the chiller. Bigger is better I'm going to have to buy a larger one for summer ,look up Teco brand quiet and much nicer and cooling is better.

I have mine in my garage and for a few weeks during the summer it gets over 90 degrees and so far it's been fine.

I used this in a fiberglass swimming pool. I worked well there. I wouldn't think the temp will bother it.

I'm keeping 5.5 gallons of fluid at 85 degrees in a 50 degree garage . I do have a coat wrapped around it but it's keeping it at temp . 50 watt

Our small fridge is in our garage and we live in central Florida, and the garage gets very hot. So far, we have had no problem keeping things cold. We use it mainly for sodas, water bottles, beer, etc.

Sorry Fred, this was never asked to go as low as 60 degrees. This is used in a wider and unclosed room for a 90+ year old. We are happy if could get to 69-70 for her. So any answer for your particular fully closed room with lessened human temps and movement, and wishing more maitenance steady refrigeration character would be pure speculation. Sorry

The temperature here is in the 90's right now and the pool temperature is running around 84 to 88 degrees. I have a 8' x 32" pool.

I haven't had an issue with my unit chilling. In fact I've had to turn it down. My little refrigerator stays in my garage so it's subject to hot weather in Texas.

About half way keeps my pump house at 45-50 degrees depending on the temp outside. Sub zero temps keep it a bit cooler inside, so I set it higher when I know the temp will drop low. My pump house is insulated well.

It reaches a degree not over 80 degrees . If it gets to warm or hot you can always just unplug it and plug it in again when it gets cold. Buy a fish tank Thermometer just to be safe.

I have mine in my garage in Tampa. It is doing fine. The Temp is consistent and I have had no problems. Good luck

Our pool is around the same volume. It worked in the winter to about 86 degrees. We had it set higher but it got to 86 and stayed around there. Our pool is outside in the shade with little sunlight. It is deeper than yours but different dimensions. Being inside I am sure you can achieve your desired temp of 85.

I can't say for sure but I have it in a 100 gallon system in a basement and it keeps it at 70 degrees with no trouble. I would get one, if it can't keep up grab a second one.

I use this in a gun safe at about 70 deg. But I tested it from about +30 to about +100 degrees and it was right on. Maybe someone can help more.
