Look at "http://www.thermocold.no/index.php?groupid=100", and you will see that Folkerom is more of a name than an accurate description.

: (S/b "cold room". A "cool room" describes a teenager's bedroom.)
At the linked site: "Dette kjølerommet kalles Folkerommet og er et meget populært kjølerom for privathusholdningen. Det er et passe stort kjølerom som passer både hverdager og til fest!"
