5 Tips To Make Your Fridge As Energy Efficient As Possible

by Ronald Elias

We all know to keep the door closed -- but these other tips will surprise you and help you save!


1. Replace Your Refrigerator’s Rubber Seal

The seal that runs along the fridge door can easily wear down, causing your fridge to use extra energy to stay cold. Replace it when it wears out to keep those energy bills down!


2. Keep Your Fridge Full

Your fridge’s job is to keep your food cold, and if it isn’t full it needs to work overtime to do this. The more full you keep your fridge, the less energy it needs to use. Yes, you read that right!


3. Avoid the (Freezer) Burn

You want to make sure your fridge keeps all your food cold, but not too cold so it wastes energy! The best temperature for a fridge is 35 - 38 degrees.


4.Sun + Fridge =

Anything that raises your fridge’s temperature is bad news, and this means outdoor sunlight, too. Keep your fridge away from any direct sunlight to maximize your energy savings.


5.Give Your Fridge A Little TLC

When was the last time you cleaned your fridge? Cleaning the fridge coils every few months is important for your fridge to run its best -- and save you the most energy!


Your refrigerator uses a lot of energy, so help yourself by helping your fridge. All these tips will help you go green while you save green and your energy bill will be as cool as your fridge!
