Efficiency is increased, as the colder the air intake temperature, the more dense it is. I guess the smart move would be to have the compressor intake from straight outside, especially in winter.
The heat dump in summer could be used to preheat the incoming water for handwashing etc.
I like the idea of using the heat for water. It could make the fridge more efficient and the heat wouldn't be wasted.
