Does filling the fridge or freezer actually help retain cold temperatures?

Yes, keeping the freezer full helps it retain the cold and keeps food frozen long in case there is a power out. Group foods together putting raw meats on the bottom, cooked meats above that, fruits and veggies next and breads and other baked goods that can't drip and contaminate foods on the top. Freeze ice, flour, rice, dry beans, dry pasta or other freezable pantry items to fill any extra space in the freezer. If the freezer is empty only thing in there will be air. So energy will be spent to cool the air which being a bad conductor will take lot of power. And then when someone opens the freezer cool air from inside mixes with hot air outside effectively raising the temperature in the freezer. The freezer has to work again to cool this hot air back to the earlier levels. So filling up the empty space in freezer with stuff (preferably but not necessarily food stuff)


Why is a fridge hot at the back and cold on the inside?

Any fridge - or freezer - is designed to keep its contents cold. It does this by taking heat away from its food compartment and pumping it into a radiator panel fixed to its outside. The radiator - either fixed on to the back of the unit or built into its back panel - must get hot because it receives most of the heat taken from the inside and has to lose it into the surrounding air.
