A refrigerator (colloquially fridge) is a common household appliance that consists of a thermally insulated compartment and a heat pump (mechanical, electronic, or chemical) that transfers heat from the inside of the fridge to its external environment so that the inside of the fridge is cooled to a temperature below the ambient temperature of the room. Cooling is a popular food storage technique in developed countries and works by decreasing or even arresting the reproduction rate of bacteria. The device is thus used to reduce the rate of spoilage of foodstuffs.
A refrigerator maintains a temperature a few degrees above the freezing point of water. Optimum temperature range for perishable food storage is 3 to 5 °C (37 to 41 °F). A similar device which maintains a temperature below the freezing point of water is called a freezer.
The refrigerator is a relatively modern invention among kitchen appliances. It replaced the icebox, which had been a common household appliance for almost a century and a half prior. For this reason, a refrigerator is sometimes referred to as an icebox.

Plot: Young Tane Te Pania loves Christmas with all his heart, but is disappointed every year when Santa inadvertently overlooks his town. Tane lives on Ngaro Island just below Stewart Island. It's a small secluded town, self sufficient, off the map and pretty much completely off the radar. So far off the radar that the Island doesn't even make it into weather forecasts. The Island is connected by a single extension cord to the mainland. Every year, Tane celebrates Christmas to its fullest, embracing the "movie like" imagery of Christmas that he's always adored. He dresses like it is winter, goes bob sledding in make believe snow and puts reindeer antlers on his Dog, Blitzen. When the town Mayor reveals that the mainland is planning to turn off the power to the Island and relocate everyone, Tane won't accept this and announces to his friends and family that this year Santa will come and he will save Ngaro Island. To do this Tane will have to use every bit of kiwi ingenuity he has to make his town noticeable.
