I've gotten great service out of my spillover system. Cold plates in the
freezer only.
Thermostacally controlled vent into the fridge side. Large boxes. Probably 3
cuft
in the freezer and 12 cuft in the fridge.


Then you really don't have a two box system. And, as with mine, you
have no way to run the fridge only. If you truly had two boxes with
two compressors, as I assume DSK has, then you have the option of
shutting down the freezer to save energy, plus you have a backup.

I have nothing against spillover systems, and your compressor system
is probably almost identical to mine. I'm just pointing out
possibilities that might work for different situations.

It was two boxes last time I looked.

True, but I have no need to do such.

Sorry, a fridge isn't a good backp for a freezer and visa versa. But I truly
have 2 boxes. You can come over and count them if you are in doubt.

Of course.
