Switching off freezers

At the end of May we are having the house re-wired and going away while it is done. I am hoping to empty the freezers to save the electrician from switching onthe power each day.
If the freezers are switched off for 10 days, will they need re-gassing on our return? One freezer is only 6mths old, but the other is at least 5 yrs old.

Absolutely not, the gas in the freezers will stay put (as it does in the shop with new ones) for ever.Just empty them, dry them out, leave the lids propped open a bit and switch on on your return (do close the doors though) They will be fine.The quicker you fall behind, the longer you have to catch up...0
