No. The refrigerator thermostat has different cut-in (when the unit turns on) and cut-out (when the unit shuts off) temperatures than a regular wall thermostat. A refrigerator thermostat cut-in/out values are usually 30 degrees - 35 degrees, respectively. If you used this on your wall, your AC unit would constantly be running trying to make your house a giant refrigerator!

How much does a refrigerator thermostat cost to replace?
I paid $89 for a thermostat and $98 for labor
What is the function of thermostat in refrigerator?
The thermostat senses the actual temperature in the fridge and compares it to the desired temperature (which the user sets on a dial), if the actual is above the desired it signals the compressor motor to run until the desired temperature is reached, when it stops the motor.
How can a thermostat be used to keep your home at a constant temperature?
the thermostat can be used to measure the temperature in a room. when.... (to see more please go to my website to see more).
If a refrigerator is a heat pump that follows the first law of thermodynamics how much heat was removed from food inside of the refrigerator if it released 240J of energy to the room?
Not enough information. The refrigerator must also follow the Second Law.The energy released to the room is the energy removed from the room, PLUS the energy used by the refrigerator (for example, as electrical energy).
What is the difference between thermostat and thermometer?
A thermostat is used to set the room to your desired temperature, whereas a thermometer just measures temperatures
Does a fridge use more energy in a cold room?
Probably not. If a refrigerator were in a room so cold that the outside temperature caused the refrigerator to be very cold inside, the thermostat in the refrigerator might not ever cause the device to actually use any energy. For most normal purposes, the refrigerator will be better off in a cooler room simply because the outside atmosphere will not be constantly warming up the fridge from the outside. Think about how much more you need the air conditioning on to keep a room at 70 degrees on a hot day than on a cold one.
How refrigerator can be used as room heater?
The top of the fridge is where all the heat comes out, so use that.
How does a heat mover absorbs heat from cold air?
A good example of this process is a refrigerator. Electricity is used to power the refrigerator to keep it cool. The room that the fridge is in is warmer. Normally the warm air from the room should flow into the refrigerator until they are the same temperature. The heat mover, which is the refrigerator in this case, absorbs the heat the cooler air absorbs, and moves it back into the room. This keeps the fridge at a constant temperature.
