Unveiling the impact factors of refrigerator electricity consumption often adjust the thermostat

Refrigerator electricity consumption increase for many reasons, some experts were consulted, the editor as you show some major reasons, while some power saving tips.

First, the environmental temperature is not too hot.

Environmental temperature on the refrigerator has a direct impact on power consumption. Environment temperature, the slower the refrigerator the heat, the temperature drops slowly inside will cause no longer to increase power consumption. Take an ordinary refrigerator of data analysis, when the ambient temperature reaches 32 ° c, power consumption is 25 ° c for about two times, 30 ℃ in the electricity consumption is 25 degrees centigrade 1.6-1.8 times. Therefore, put in the refrigerator should, as far as possible, away from heat, to decide the place of ventilation as well.

Second, the thermostat stalls often adjusted.

Each fridge has a thermostat, by adjusting the stalls to regulate the temperature in the fridge, the higher the temperature controller stalls, the lower the temperature in the fridge. Freezing room reach-18 ° c, each drop of 1 ° c are difficult, more difficult to drop, but lengyue continuous running temperature can reach up to 24 degrees centigrade, at which time also from inside and outside temperature, cold lost more and post a long time even without downtime.

If the stall is too high and no longer wish to lower the thermostat stalls, startup time will be significantly reduced.

Freezing room as a popular-18 ° c instead of-22 ° c, could save 30% of electricity consumption.

Third, open the door to minimize the number of times.

Open the refrigerator door can feel the air ran out, and the air conditioning off will inevitably lead to an increase in temperature in the refrigerator, it will cause a delay in the temperature controller is not up to the temperature of the downtime resulting compressor to work long hours, the electricity consumption increase.

Fourth, the defrost time is important.

Frost is a poor conductor of heat, covered in the evaporator surface, become the evaporator and boxes of food between insulation effect evaporator, and the food inside the heat between the inside temperature drop down, lower the refrigerator refrigerant properties, increase power consumption or even a long-running the compressor and fever, burned. In addition, there are various in frost food smells, long time no defrosting, makes smelly refrigerator. In General, Frost layer up to 5 mm thick, it should be removed.
