Refrigeration Tips

Once you have selected a new fridge or freezer, here are some additional energy efficiency tips you can follow:

• Don't overfill the refrigerator - this blocks air circulation.
• A full freezer will perform better than an empty one.
• Clean your refrigerator's coils (in the back) and air intake grill (below the doors) every 3 months.
• Allow hot foods to cool before putting them in the refrigerator.
• Keep refrigerators and freezers out of direct sunlight, and allow at least 5 cm all around the unit.
