Make Sure Your Fridge is Lint Free
Routine maintenance can extend the life of your fridge and save money on your bill
Routine maintenance is important to keep your refrigerator running efficiently.
Lint and dirt should be cleaned from the refrigerator coils every six months to a year—and more often if there are pets in the home.When coils are coated with lint, dust or pet hair, your refrigerator works harder than it’s designed to, which can prevent the appliance from cooling properly and efficiently. The additional work can increase the energy costs of the refrigerator by as much as 35% and shorten the life of the appliance.
