just looking to buy freezer for garage (brick built ) and finding that some freezers apparantely are not suitable for outbuildings and need a minimum temp to function? sales talk or fact ?
 
......Put a small heater (actually a power resistor) in the fridge, mounted and wired within the lamp housing. This provides enough heat that the compressor must run periodically to remove the accumulated heat,......
If the compressor ever fails to run there's a good chance even a small heat source inside the fridge can entirely melt the inner plastic liner.
 
It's really small - less heat than the filament lamp - and controlled by the thermostat so that it goes off when there is demand for the compressor.
