The Fridge is a full size household refrigerator with a freezer compartment. It keeps perishable food fresh far longer, which makes it a key part of any base kitchen. It is a Moveable, so it can be picked up, carried and placed again.

It comes in Plain, White, Red, Green, Blue and Steel colours. Every colour stores the same amount. A fridge is worth moving into a base that has a generator. It is also one of the richest appliances to weld apart for parts.

How to Use Fridge


The fridge holds a large amount of food. Food placed in it rots about five times more slowly than food left out.

The freezer compartment holds about half as much. Food in the freezer spoils many times more slowly again. Use it for meat, fish and other food meant to last.

A fridge needs electricity to keep food cold. Once the power grid fails, a generator keeps it running.

The top counts as a crafting surface. Recipes that need a table can be done next to it.

How to Move Fridge


Pick it up from the context menu to turn it into an inventory item. It is one of the heaviest pieces of found furniture. A survivor will struggle to carry it on foot. Empty it first, then load it into a vehicle and park close to the kitchen.

Fridge Scrap Parts


A Welding Torch and a Welder Mask, using the Welding skill, break it into a rich pile of parts. That includes Steel Sheets of both sizes, Steel Chunks, Steel Pieces, Nuts and Bolts, Screws, Electrical Wire and Copper Scrap. Further welding can also give Scrap Metal.

A Screwdriver and the Electrical skill pull out Scrap Electronics and Electrical Wire.

Locations


Residential fridges are common in houses across Knox Country. The Steel Fridge is grouped with the industrial fridges found in commercial kitchens and food stores.

Notes


  • Food in the fridge rots about five times more slowly.
  • The freezer keeps food far longer than the fridge.
  • It needs power or a generator to cool.
  • It is very heavy, so move it by vehicle.
  • Welding one apart gives a big haul of steel and wire.
