Ways to Save Energy on Your Second Refrigerator

Uncategorized, , , , , ,
  

Do you
find yourself always running out of space in your refrigerator?
Sometimes, the model in your kitchen simply isn’t spacious enough to
meet the needs of your family. It is not uncommon for houses to have
a second refrigerator – maybe it is time for you to invest in one
too. Before you pull the trigger on your purchase, first make sure it
is necessary. In addition to several hundred dollars up front, a
second refrigerator can cost up to $100 a year to operate. If you
decide to buy one, use these tips to save yourself some money.

Buy an Energy Star model
First
and foremost, buy a refrigerator which is Energy Star certified. The
Energy Star label is given to the most energy efficient products by
the EPA. You can find a list of their most efficient products here.
These models may have a more expensive price tag, but they will save
you money in the long run by consuming less energy than non-certified
models.
Keep it out of the garage
Many
families like to keep their second refrigerator in the garage because
of the extra space, but that is one of the worst places you can put
it. An unconditioned garage presents a few problems. Firstly, the
temperature gets very high during the summer, which in turn makes the
refrigerator work harder than normal, which leads to a higher energy
bill. Even worse, if your garage gets too hot or too cold, it can
affect the refrigerator’s internal thermostat and your food can warm
to unsafe temperatures, causing you to throw away or unknowingly eat
your spoiled food.
Don’t buy more than you
need
Before
taking a trip to the local appliance store, think about how much
space you will need in your second refrigerator. More space may be
luxurious, but it also requires more energy to cool. Buying a bigger
fridge than needed also hinders your refrigerators cooling
performance. Failing to consistently keep your refrigerator at least
halfway full will result in the loss of much more cold air when the
door is opened. These fluctuations can lead to prematurely spoiled
food and, once again, a higher electric bill.
When
shopping for a second refrigerator, it is important to make smart
decisions. It is also important to make smart decisions when looking
for a refrigerator repair service – that is why you should choose
24/7 Refrigerator Repair. Proudly serving Nassau County and Queens
for over 50 years, we offer service around the clock – that
includes nights, weekends, and holidays. Call 866-782-9376 or visit our website for more information. You can also like us on Facebook

3 Signs That You Need to Get Your Refrigerator Fixed

Uncategorized, , , , , ,

 

You may
not realize this, but the common household refrigerator is actually a
complex machine that has a lot of individual parts all working
together to keep your food cold. If just one of these parts
malfunctions, it could cause your whole refrigerator to stop working.
Combine that with the fact that the fridge is the only household
appliance to work 24 hours a day, and it is easy to see how
breakdowns can occur. Luckily for you, 24/7 Refrigerator Repair has
put together this list of common signs that you should get your
fridge fixed so that you can address these problems before it is too
late.

The Motor Doesn’t Turn
Off
It is
normal for your refrigerator’s compressor to cycle on and off
throughout the day. It is not normal for the compressor to run
all day, every day. If you feel like your refrigerator has not
stopped running in a while, it may be in your best interest to get it
checked out. Keep in mind that if you have recently adjusted the
temperature settings, it is not uncommon for a refrigerator to run
for up to 24 hours straight. However, if it has been going for days,
there is most likely a problem – usually either with the thermostat
or compressor. In either case, call a local appliance repair service,
such as 24/7 Refrigerator Repair, to have a professional take a look.
Spoiled Food
All
food will eventually spoil, regardless of how well your refrigerator
is working. But when a lot of your food starts spoiling prematurely,
this is a red flag. Food expiring well before it should is a sign
that your fridge is not maintaining the temperature that it should
be. There is no one problem that specifically causes this to happen –
it could be an issue with the sealing system, coolant, compressor, or
a number of other things. In order to correctly diagnose the problem
and see if your refrigerator can be fixed, contact a local
refrigerator handyman service.
Leakage
If you
notice puddles of liquid forming either in the refrigerator or under
it, there is a problem. This can range from faulty seals, which can
be easily replaced for cheap, to a break in the tube channel, which
is much more serious. If your fridge is causing liquids to pool,
contact a professional immediately.
At 24/7

problems and the best ways to fix them. With over 60 years of
experience, there is no better refrigerator repair service in all of
Long Island or Queens. You can visit our website or like our Facebook page for more information.

Space

Invest
in an egg holder. It offers more protection than that flimsy foam you
buy the eggs in and allows you to stack things on top of it.

Another
alternative to keep your delicate items, such as eggs or bread, safe
is to buy a shelf riser. This also maximizes your storage space.
