PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a refrigerator capable of reducing power consumption required in heater energization by solving the problem wherein heat generation is required by energizing the heater for frosting prevention in order to prevent frosting generated in the refrigerator. SOLUTION: This refrigerator has a constitution wherein a sensor for detecting the ambient outside air temperature is provided, and the outside air temperature is detected based on the sensor output, and the heating value of the heater for frosting prevention is reduced when the outside air temperature is high. Hereby, useless power consumption by the heater for frosting prevention can be reduced when the outside air temperature is high. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
