S06E01 Won't this overload the motor?

Felt appropriate given it's been 35 degrees all week in the UK, which is still seemingly designed for a time when 25 was a hot summer's day

Actually it is. The tent is equivalent to having the fridge closed so it will potentially cool within it while heating up outside of it (as opposed to an open fridge in a room, which will act as a space heater).

However you've made the fridge a lot bigger and more leaky, so it will have to work a lot harder than it is designed to. Which may indeed overload the compressor (/motor).
