A refrigerator is an electronic appliance that we use 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. And yet, despite paying a high fridge price, we barely pay any special attention to this domestic appliance with regards to its maintenance?
Fridges have come to occupy an important place in the Indian household. Whether you are a vegetarian or a non-vegetarian, a wine connoisseur, or an ice-cream lover — it is likely that your double door fridge is an indispensable part of your life. It is also likely that you paid a heavy fridge price to own your favourite refrigerator models.
A double door fridge is a useful product that gives you the convenience of separate compartments for the main fridge and the freezer. Although the double door fridge price is relatively higher than basic models, double door refrigerators offer high storage flexibility and enhanced cooling options.
However good your double door fridge is, you must take the necessary care for it to work efficiently. A poorly kept fridge will not only give inefficient cooling, but it will also add to your electricity bills. So, how do you go about ensuring the best working environment and support for your double door fridge? Coughing up a steep fridge price and not maintaining the appliance doesn’t make sense.
Here are some easy tips to help you get the best performance out of your fridge for many years to come.
How to keep your refrigerator running efficiently?
-
Don’t place hot food directly in the fridge
This is one of the most common mistakes that affect the efficiency of a refrigerator. Keeping hot food directly in the fridge increases the internal temperature and reduces the compressor load. This means your double door fridge compressor must work harder to maintain a cool temperature, leading to poor performance and high electricity bills. To avoid this issue, make sure that the food cools down before storing it in the refrigerator.

Mind the temperature — It’s your fridge, not Antarctica
Many consumers set the temperature of their Samsung double door fridge way down low to deep freeze all stored products. This is not ideal for all kinds of food and puts an extra burden on the compressor. If prolonged, this can lead to compressor burnout and increased power consumption. If you are planning to buy the latest Samsung double door fridge then Visit Bajaj EMI Store and bring it home.
-
Keep the food covered
You are supposed to cover the food you keep in your double door fridge. Uncovered food material releases moisture and odours into the fridge interiors, leading to a perpetually stale environment. Also, uncovered food is more prone to getting oxidised and will spoil faster.
-
Don’t open your fridge too often or too wide
Another basic rule. Each time you open your fridge door, you add extra work to the compressor. Repeated door openings in a short time make it very hard for the fridge’s internal mechanism to maintain a consistent internal temperature. Another common mistake is opening the door too wide. This allows cool air to escape and warm external air to enter the fridge, ruining all the efforts of the compressor.
-
Your fridge also needs space
This means that a fridge should not be placed close to a wall. Ensure there is a gap of at least 1-2 inches between the back and sides of the refrigerator and the adjacent walls. Doing this will aid in proper air circulation and heat dissipation from your refrigerator. Having a well-ventilated fridge will also cut down your electricity consumption.
-
Get your fridge inspected once a year
There is only so much you can do yourself. And sometimes, an expert eye is needed to make the correct decisions. Thus, make sure to get your double door fridge checked out by a professional at least once every year. Parts to pay special attention to when consulting a service guy include the condenser coil, which should be checked for blockage and heat transmission issues. Seeking timely help will add years to your refrigerator and help you get the best value out of your fridge price.
