Why do freezers feel colder when it’s cold outside?

334 views

This might not be a relatable question to anyone who doesn’t work in food service or otherwise have regular access to large walk-in freezers. When the air temperature outside is warm (or even in commercial kitchens, hot) going into the walki-in cooler or freezer can be a refreshing respite from the heat. But when the seasons shift and the air temps start to get colder, it feels like the same walk-ins are almost bitingly cold. Why does it feel colder in there when I’m already cold than when I’m hot?

Do you know that the internal temperature is the same year-round? It should be, but you won’t know unless there is a thermometer inside.
