It is not only in times of crisis where there is a need to look into saving money and saving energy. It’s also common sense. As a distributor of Vestfrost home appliances, we are always ready with advice and guidance. It is of great importance to us, that consumers are well-prepared so they can get the most out of their products. Therefore, we have gathered 6 great energy-saving tips for refrigerators.

How to save energy on your refrigerator:

  1. Install the appliance in a cool, well-ventilated room, but avoid direct sunlight and never place it next to a heat source (radiator, hob etc.). Otherwise, you can use an insulation board.
  2. Cool down warm food and drinks outside of the appliance.
  3. Cover up drinks and other liquids when putting them in the refrigerator, otherwise, the humidity in the appliance will rise, which will prolong the working hours. Covering drinks and other liquids also helps to preserve their aroma and taste.
  4. Try to avoid leaving the doors open for long periods of time – or opening the doors too often – as warm air will enter the refrigerator, causing the compressor to turn on unnecessarily.
  5. Make sure to keep the lids of the different temperature sections of the appliance closed (vegetable drawer, cold room, etc.).
  6. The rubber seals of the doors should be clean and bendable. Replace the seals when they become worn.

If the energy-saving tips are not sufficient and you instead need a new refrigerator, Vestfrost offers a wide range of options. On our website, you can easily and quickly find the nearest retailer of your new Vestfrost refrigerator.
