Default GFI Outlet

Kate wrote in -

I have a freezer in my garage that is plugged into a GFI outlet.
I was told that this was not a good thing.

Would this be an easy fix by changing out the outlet, or should I move
the freezer which is a lot of work?

Thanks in advance.

Your local code may say that outlets in the garage must be GFCI.

Hopefully a NEC wiz will tell you if it's required at that level.
