No, I mean degrees F. Most home refrigerator freezers in the US are
designed to maintain 0 degrees F, although some will run as low as minus 5-
10 degrees F. Many, but not all, stand-alone home freezers are capable of
maintaining minus 15-20 degrees F. Few are capable of lower temperatures
than that. Some only maintain 0 degrees F. Almost any freezer capable of
maintaining lower than minus 20 degrees F would be a commercial freezer.
At least that's what I've found when shopping. I'd be interested in
knowing otherwise.
