    A properly insulated industrial freezer should consume less electricity than a house with AC, even if it’s set at a reasonable temp.

      I’m curious as to how this would compare to a properly insulated home?

      most the houses in texas are uninsulated to keep construction costs down. (despite the fact that even a minimal amount of insulation would pay for itself inside of a year or two.) (Why would you want to insulate against heat, right? global warming is a woke-ist hoax! /s)
