MAXIMIZING ICE RETENTION

A YETI® Cooler, with its roto-molded construction, heavily insulated walls and lid, and freezer quality sealing gasket, provides remarkable insulating performance and ice retention capabilities.

To get the most from your YETI’s insulating qualities, we strongly recommend you read the concepts outlined below. These techniques are used by seasoned

outdoor professionals who rely on extended ice retention.

Start with a cool YETI® Cooler

A cooler is designed to insulate, which means it will retain heat as well as cold. For this reason, try to store your cooler in a cool environment prior to loading it with ice. If stored in direct sunlight, a warm garage, or a hot vehicle prior to use, a significant amount of ice will be wasted cooling the cooler itself. One way to cool the walls is to preload it with a sacrificial bag of ice. The starting temperature of the cooler is one of the most commonly overlooked variables in ice retention.

Freeze or pre-chill contents

Chilling or even freezing the contents you intend to load into your cooler is an often overlooked way to extend ice retention.

Consider that it will take over 1 lb. of ice to cool a six-pack of canned beverages that started at room temperature.

More ice is better

We recommend filling your cooler

with as much ice as possible. Ideally, you want to have an ice to contents ratio of 2:1. Please keep in mind that when two YETI® models are completely filled with ice, the larger of the two will retain ice longer.

Not all ice is created equal

Ice can get much colder than its freezing point. “Warm” ice (near 32°F) is typically wet to the touch and dripping with water. Cold, sub-zero ice is relatively dry and will last substantially longer.

PRO TIP: USE DRY ICE

Dry ice provides 3x the cooling power of regular ice, leaving more room for contents. Unlike ordinary ice chests, which crack when exposed to dry ice, a YETI® Cooler is designed to stand up to this extreme temperature. Consider using dry ice in

any situation where extended cooling power is necessary, such as long trips or power outages. It can be used by itself or in conjunction with regular ice.

Dry ice must be handled with protective gloves to prevent frostbite. It will likely freeze the contents in the cooler and can cause aluminum cans to rupture. Keep dry ice away from small children. Ventilation is extremely important. With improper ventilation, the gas emitted from dry ice can cause shortness of breath and loss of consciousness.
