Keeping the refrigerator in good condition throughout the year
Keeping the temperature of the refrigerator in winter can seem much easier than doing it during the hottest weeks of the year.
However, although environmental conditions are on your side, there are many important factors that you must take into account so that the operation of your refrigerator is correct throughout the year.
Also, all refrigerators require a series of care and healthy habits to have a long life and a sensible consumption of electricity.
How to get the most out of your fridge?
Breakdowns and malfunctions may be caused by poor installation.
What are the factors that most influence the operation of your refrigerator?
- Your refrigerator should be installed away from heat sources, such as ovens or heating.
- Ensure that sunlight does not directly affect its surface.
- Its back should always face a wall.
- Always leave at least 5 cm of space around your refrigerator, so that the air can run.
Beyond the correct installation of your refrigerator, many things will help you keep your fridge cold, extending the life of your appliance!
- Try to keep the door open for as little time as possible.
- Distribute the food equally in your fridge and leave space between them.
- Try not to overload your fridge.
- If you are going to defrost foods that you have taken out of the freezer, do it inside the refrigerator.
- Do not introduce freshly cooked foods that are still hot.
- At the first sighting of ice or frost, it should be defrosted.
