Hello everyone, I am Xiao Yuanyuan. Refrigerators are essential appliances for every household and are used almost every day. Unlike TVs, air conditioners, and washing machines that "turn on as you use", the refrigerator will remain in working condition as long as it is purchased and returned home. Especially some older refrigerators are always power-consuming.
Today I will share with you a little trick. You can easily solve the problem of electricity consumption in old refrigerators by requiring a mask, and save you a lot of electricity bills every month. Many friends don’t know this technique, and missing it means missing 100 million!
1. Placement location
During the work process, the heat of the food needs to be transported outside the refrigerator. No matter how good a refrigerator is, the refrigerator shell is a way to transport heat. Therefore, when many refrigerators are working, the temperature of the shell will be very high, and you will feel very hot when you touch it with your hands.
If you want to save electricity from the refrigerator, it is crucial to place it in which position. When placing the refrigerator, you must consider the cooling path of the refrigerator. The faster the heat dissipates, the less work the refrigerator is. Once the refrigerator reaches the desired temperature, it will stop working and power consumption.
When placing the refrigerator, be sure to pay attention to the following 2 points:
1. When placing the refrigerator, be sure to reserve heat dissipation space. Make sure that both sides are at least 10 cm away from the wall, so that the refrigerator can dissipate heat smoothly.
2. Be sure to stay away from high temperatures when placing the refrigerator. In addition to staying away from the gas stove, also stay away from the sun and the oven.
2. Reduce load
The food in the refrigerator seems to be very low in temperature, but it can also emit calories. To help the refrigerator save electricity, you must reduce the load in the refrigerator. Foods with a longer shelf life such as mineral water and canned foods should not be put in the refrigerator. Foods that have been stored for a long time should also be thrown away as soon as possible to prevent them from expired.
3. Let the hot food cool down and then put it in the refrigerator
Many people like to keep leftovers fresh when the food is very hot. The temperature inside the refrigerator was originally constant, but suddenly the hotter food was put in. The refrigerator must cool down quickly, forcing the engine to run overload. Therefore, before putting hot dishes into the refrigerator, you must cool them down in advance.
3. Reasonable food
Every summer, foodies like to stuff the refrigerator full of money, but they don’t know that doing so is very power-consuming. The food in the refrigerator is stored too much, which hinders the circulation of internal air conditioners and increases power consumption.
If you want to save electricity, you must place food reasonably. Leaving a gap between food is conducive to cold air exchange, making the temperature more stable and reducing power consumption.
4. Mask maintenance method
Thick frost accumulates in the refrigerator, which will greatly increase the power consumption of the refrigerator. If you want to save electricity from the refrigerator, you must defrost and maintain the refrigerator regularly. Today I will leave it to everyone to use a mask to deal with it.
First we need to cut off the power and take out the food in the refrigerator. Then prepare a large bowl, pour hot water into the bowl, and put it in the refrigerator and wait for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, the frost in the refrigerator will automatically fall off. You can use the mesh of the mask to scrub. The dishcloth is covered with oil stains. When scrubbing the refrigerator, it will only get dirtier the more you wash it.
There is a small opening inside the refrigerator, which is actually the drain of the refrigerator. If the refrigerator is not cleaned for a long time and the drain is blocked, it will also cause a lot of frost inside the refrigerator. First we prepare a cup and pour warm water, then pour in salt and stir well.
Point the salt into the small hole and slowly pour it down. The salt water can dissolve the ice in the drain. Then take the thin iron wire in the outlet mask, aim it at the small hole and poke it gently a few times. The refrigerator that has been cleaned with masks is very clean and will never have a thick layer of frost.
Summary:
Tips for saving power in refrigerators, very practical and very simple. If your refrigerator is old, it is recommended to try these methods, and you will no longer be afraid of the refrigerator's high power consumption!
