ᐅ Utility room used for food storage despite heat pump?

Hi,

We plan to use a heat pump in our shell house.
We don’t have a basement, only a small utility room.
How does heat generation in that room work in this case?
Of course, it also depends on the size of the room.

We would also like to use this room for laundry washing/drying and as a food storage area.
These appliances already generate heat during use.
If the heat pump also releases heat, it will probably get too warm in our 8 sqm (86 sq ft) small utility room!?

Regards,

For storing food, there are nowadays very advanced refrigerators with a 0°C (32°F) zone. Vegetables and meat last a few days longer there than in a regular fridge. If you pay a little attention to consumption, this is an alternative to shopping three times a week.
We are moving to the countryside, and you have to consider that you can’t shop every day. In addition, a large vegetable garden is planned.

Thanks for your tips.

By food supplies, I mean the following:
Beverages (cartons / bottles),
Canned goods,
Jars,
Pasta,
Baking ingredients.

Vegetables are already stored in our 0°C (32°F) compartment,
and potatoes in the kitchen cupboard.
