As extreme weather, grid instability and unexpected outages continue to impact households across the country, and with U.S. electricity customers experiencing an average of 11 hours of power outages in 2024, nearly double the prior decade's average, FridgeGuard provides consumers with a simple way to keep critical home essentials powered when they need them most. Available to Costco members online at Costco.com and in select warehouse locations, FridgeGuard delivers reliable refrigerator backup protection is a sleek, space-saving design built to fit seamlessly into modern homes. “Power outages can happen without warning, and the refrigerator is one of the few appliances that households rely on around the clock.

A single extended outage can result in hundreds of dollars in spoiled groceries, in addition to disrupting medications, prepared meals and other temperature-sensitive items. Jackery FridgeGuard is purpose-built to provide uninterrupted refrigerator protection through its advanced FridgeSafe Technology combining intelligent backup capabilities with a homeowner-friendly design, which include: <ul type="disc"><li style="text-align:justify;">Instant power protection: A 10ms UPS switchover automatically transitions to backup power when an outage occurs, helping prevent interruptions to refrigerator operation.</li><li style="text-align:justify;">Up to 15 hours of refrigerator backup: The 1024Wh capacity keeps compatible refrigerators running during extended outages, comfortably covering the 11-hour average U.S. power outage in 2024, with an optional expansion battery available to extend runtime up to 30 hours.</li><li style="text-align:justify;">1600W compressor-ready output: Designed specifically to handle the startup power demands of modern refrigerators.</li><li style="text-align:justify;">Surge and grid anomaly protection: Helps safeguard appliances from voltage spikes, lightning and unstable grid conditions.</li><li style="text-align:justify;">Smart monitoring capabilities: The Jackery Smart App allows users to easily monitor the battery level, input and output, and estimated runtime.

No electrician. No appointments. Simply plug the FridgeGuard into the wall, plug your refrigerator into FridgeGuard, and you're protected in about thirty seconds. Unlike traditional power stations that need to be moved from room to room, FridgeGuard is built on a different premise: set it once and let it take over in the background when outages happen. <img alt="Jackery USA" height="338" src="https://ml.globenewswire.com/Resource/Download/159b3f38-b6b6-4a09-b7d0-1ed0b720931b/fridgeguard.png" width="600" data-dpi="96" data-caption="Jackery&apos;s all-new FridgeGuard, the world slimmest refrigerator backup power, is now available at Costco." data-filename="FridgeGuard .png" /> The ultra-slim 2.6-inch profile allows the unit to stand beside a refrigerator, sit flat on top or wall-mounted, making it ideal for homeowners, renters and anyone looking for flexible protection from a power station without major installation requirements.
