(Sorry for my bad english, i'm French, i'm doing my best :D )

The Idea consist of 2 Objects :
1/ The air-conditioner : an object (2x1 tiles) 1 part put outside, and one part inside the wall. Need for electricity of course. It uses energy to "extract" heat in the interior to put it outside.
2/ Cold room door : obvious as the others kind of doors cannot maintain the cold inside a room (especially jail doors).
So to be operational, a cold room must be :
* interior
* with air conditionner with energy, and "cold room" door
* without windows, or other kind of door

USAGE :
* Cold Room for the Kitchen : it's a room that is like a giant fridge, to store food. If the "cold room" is designated as "storage room" cookers can use it as the fridges, and "workers" can move the food deliveries to this special storage room.
=> It is interesting to optimize the work of cooks.
The Price of air-conditioner must be high, i think.
* Morgue : if not climatized we can imagine that the dead bodies can putrefied, and make staff and prisonners sick (the same if there is no morgue, or space left in the morgue).

MORE possibilities:
We can also imagine that we can in the option of the object "air-conditionner" select an option : "climatize" or "fridge".
* "Fridge" : for the "cold room" of kitchen and morgue (as described above)
* "climatize" : for others rooms : offices, cells ... and so, we can imagine a new "need" for prisoners, or include it in "comfort"

Thanks

This would be like specific storage for the kitchen items and also would help streamline the cooks who are currently running all over the place.

I like the a/c idea. Or more specifically - heating.

It's one of our basic needs so would have an effect on the prisoners happiness.
Not sure how to make it a bit more exciting though.

A cold room would be useful to save space and electricity in the kitchen.

Another idea is to have a Food Packager; a machine where a prisoner can pack food servings for later consumption, or for export.

These objects can unlocked through the Food Management bureaucracy. It allows the Quartermaster, a senior staff member who supervises cooking.

A Storage Shelf could allow six objects to be stored in a 1*2 tile space.

This would make cold rooms more useful.
