Quick energy savings tip. A way to save energy is picking a good spot for your kitchen refrigerator. Find a spot in the room that’s not is the direct sunlight or near other warm appliances. The heat from your range and dishwasher will cause your refrigerator to work harder. Direct sunlight can have the same effect of warming the area around your refrigerator. Most standard refrigerators reject the heat into the back of the unit. The better the air can flow to the back coils the more energy you will save.
If you condenser coils have to work twice as hard to reject heat the more power it will use to do its job. Just keep you area behind your refrigerator clean for proper air flow. A clean and cool system will save your money in the long run.
