Tips to Lower Electricity Bill

Replacing your old fridge could help saving money on power bill.

Here are some tips that will help you lower your electricity bill:

  • Clean the Coils- The coils are located either at the back or underneath the grill in a refrigerator. Dust, dirt and debris accumulation on the condenser coils can affect their working and result in higher electricity bills. To solve this problem, unplug the refrigerator and remove all the accumulated debris using a vacuum. Make sure that there is space for air circulation on either side of and behind the fridge.
  • Check the Temperature– Know that a colder temperature isn’t always better. Even if the storage temperature is 10°F lower than what it should be, the refrigerator can use up approximately 25% more energy. The fridge temps should be in the range of 36° and 38°F, while the freezer should be in the 0° and 5°F range.
  • Reorganize the Space- When you organize everything in the fridge well, you will spend far less time looking for the things you need, which also means the fridge door will be open for a shorter time. A stocked freezer & fridge are easier to keep cool, as all the items help do the job. Know that the appliance uses less energy when it’s fuller, but make sure that you do not pack it so full that there is no space for air circulation.

In addition to these things, check that the door seals are in good condition. Ensure that the refrigerator is not exposed to direct sunlight or placed very close to any appliance like your dishwasher, as the heat in the immediate vicinity will cause it to work harder.
