Ambient heat is a new feature of version 50. It can also be called "air temperature."

As it's name suggests, it is heat currents that travel along air currents. To view Ambient Heat, turn it on in the menu and switch to heat display (6)

The air temperature would begin to change. Like pressure, it is blocked by walls. Therefore, it is completely possible to combine the Decor layer and Ambient Heat to create a fully stocked fridge!
