Is Food in Double Drawer Refrigerator Safe to Consume After Power Outage?

Power Interruptions

If the power will be out for 24 hours or less, keep both refrigerator drawers closed to help food stay cold.
If the power will be out for more than 24 hours, do one of the following:

  • Place all perishable food in a food locker or cooler with dry ice.
  • If neither a food locker or cooler is available, consume food if still cold or throw away perishable food at once.
