It is constantly running, both in winter and in the summer, which makes them one of the most energy -intensive houses in the house. However, few people realize that a small adaptation of the refrigerator settings during the colder months can help reduce electricity consumption.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>How to adjust the temperature of the refrigerator in winter for energy savings<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>On average, a large refrigerator uses 50 to 75 kWh of electricity every month, which is placed third in energy consumption between household appliances, just behind electric stoves and water heaters. However, this number may vary depending on user habits. Simply by adjusting the refrigerator settings, especially in the winter months, users can reduce electricity use.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<script>\r\n  window.googletag = window.googletag || {cmd: []};\r\n  googletag.cmd.push(function() {\r\n    googletag.defineSlot('\/22756311368\/LAP5', [[300, 250], [320, 480], [336, 280], [320, 100], [580, 400], [750, 300]], 'div-gpt-ad-1728564828386-0').addService(googletag.pubads());\r\n    googletag.pubads().enableSingleRequest();\r\n    googletag.pubads().collapseEmptyDivs();\r\n    googletag.enableServices();\r\n  });\r\n<\/script>\r\n<div alaunit=\"3\" style='text-align: center;padding-bottom: 10px;'>\r\n<!-- \/22756311368\/LAP5 -->\r\n<div id='div-gpt-ad-1728564828386-0' style='min-width: 300px; min-height: 100px;'>\r\n  <script>\r\n    googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1728564828386-0'); });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<p>Many modern refrigerators have a temperature setting that ranges from 1 to 5 or 1 to 6, with the coldest settings used in summer. During winter, it is recommended to set the refrigerator to a lower cooling level, such as level 2 or 3 or even 1. Setting to level 1 generally maintains an internal temperature between 2 and 5 degrees Celsius, which is optimal for food protection and energy savings. Similarly, the freezer compartment should be adjusted to a lower temperature in winter.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bunny-wp-pullzone-qbwibhia54.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Screenshot_1628.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>In addition to adjusting the temperature based on the season, the energy consumption of the refrigerator can also be influenced by how full it is. When a refrigerator is full of meals, a higher level of cooling may be required. Conversely, if it is not full, lower settings may be sufficient. For fresh foods such as seafood, a higher temperature around -18 degrees Celsius should be maintained in the freezer to prevent bacterial growth and safely maintain food.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>More tips on how to save electricity<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>In addition to temperature adjustments, experts recommend the following tips to help reduce electricity consumption:<\/p>\r\n\r\n<script>\r\n  window.googletag = window.googletag || {cmd: []};\r\n  googletag.cmd.push(function() {\r\n    googletag.defineSlot('\/22756311368\/LAP5', [[336, 280], [320, 100], [580, 400], [750, 300], [300, 250], [320, 480]], 'div-gpt-ad-1728564868956-0').addService(googletag.pubads());\r\n    googletag.pubads().enableSingleRequest();\r\n    googletag.pubads().collapseEmptyDivs();\r\n    googletag.enableServices();\r\n  });\r\n<\/script>\r\n<div alaunit=\"4\" style='text-align: center;padding-bottom: 10px;'>\r\n<!-- \/22756311368\/LAP5 -->\r\n<div id='div-gpt-ad-1728564868956-0' style='min-width: 300px; min-height: 100px;'>\r\n  <script>\r\n    googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1728564868956-0'); });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The correct placement of the refrigerators releases heat from behind or on the sides, so it is important to place them where the air can flow freely. Avoid placing the fridge too close to the wall or other obstacles. Also maintain a refrigerator from heat generating equipment, such as microwaves, stoves or furnaces, as it can increase the workload of the refrigerator and shorten its life.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Limit the time when the door is open, opens the refrigerator door for a longer period of time, causing cold air to escape, forcing the compressor to work harder to maintain the desired temperature. Try to limit how often and how long the fridge doors have been open.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>By following these simple steps, you can significantly reduce the energy consumption of the refrigerator, leading to lower electricity and more efficient home accounts.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>In conclusion, the simple adjustment of the refrigerator settings can lead to significant energy savings, especially in the winter months. By reducing the temperature on the refrigerator and freezer, ensuring the correct placement and in mind how often the door opens, you can reduce electricity consumption and reduce accounts. With some easy changes in your daily habits, you can help your refrigerator work more efficiently and contribute to a more sustainable home.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<script>\r\n  window.googletag = window.googletag || {cmd: []};\r\n  googletag.cmd.push(function() {\r\n    googletag.defineSlot('\/22756311368\/LAP5', [[320, 100], [750, 300], [320, 480], [580, 400], [336, 280], [300, 250]], 'div-gpt-ad-1728564912373-0').addService(googletag.pubads());\r\n    googletag.pubads().enableSingleRequest();\r\n    googletag.pubads().collapseEmptyDivs();\r\n    googletag.enableServices();\r\n  });\r\n<\/script>\r\n<div alaunit=\"5\" style='text-align: center;padding-bottom: 10px;'>\r\n<!-- \/22756311368\/LAP5 -->\r\n<div id='div-gpt-ad-1728564912373-0' style='min-width: 300px; min-height: 100px;'>\r\n  <script>\r\n    googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1728564912373-0'); });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Did you know that there is a hidden button in the refrigerator that could drastically reduce the electricity account?
