Awesome idea and writeups. Something I didn’t see mentioned as a consideration was an in-ground installation... not that I know it would benefit, and I know it’d be a whole heap of extra logistics. But root cellars and pit refrigeration were things before the appliance was invented.
TIL about the Yakhchāl (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yakhchāl https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yakhchāl) which I found searching for an example of a pit style. Also that 7-Eleven sprang from an icehouse company in Texas (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_house_(building) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_house_(building)).
