                  Q:what are the running amps for this item
                  by|Sep 6, 2021
                  2 Answers
                  Answer This Question

                  A:  Hello - Thanks for your question; we are glad to assist. The running amps can be found on the unit's rating plate. If you are needing this for running the refrigerator on a generator, solar power, inverter, etc. and you can't check the rating plate, you can use the minimum amp breaker or fuse size recommended for this appliance as a guide. This unit requires a 15 or 20 amp fused, grounded electrical supply. Please keep in mind that refrigerators have a brief surge of power when the compressor cycles on. This is called the "surge" or "start-up" amps, and is about 2x to 3x the running amps. We hope this helps. Olga@GEA

                  by|Sep 8, 2021

                    A:  This item running amps can be found in the manufacture's sticker on the inside refrigerator wall. Below the serial number it will read 1.2 running amps - you need a 15 amp circuit to start the refrigerator operation. The compressor will run about 3 amps (just a little more than the running amps, but I'm not sure) for the frost-free operation when needed.

                        Q:Is this refrigerator "garage ready"? What are the minimum and maximum temperatures it can tolerate?

                        2 Answers
                        Answer This Question

                        A:  Hello - We appreciate your interest in this refrigerator and we are happy to help! The model GTS17GSNRSS is not garage ready. We do not recommend installing a refrigerator where temperatures will go below 60 degrees Fahrenheit. At this temperature, the unit is less efficient and will continue to lose efficiency as the outdoor temperature decreases. We do not recommend installing a refrigerator where the temperature will exceed 110 degrees Fahrenheit. There is a possibility that operating the refrigerator in extremely high temperature could cause the oil to overheat and break down, thus damaging the compressor or sealed system. We hope this helps. Thanks for checking. Olga@GEA
