Keeping the door open for extended periods allows cold air to escape, forcing the compressor to work harder to restore the temperature.
This significantly increases energy consumption. Always close the door quickly after use.
3. Store Food in Glass or Ceramic Containers
Glass and ceramic containers retain and distribute cold air more effectively than plastic.
Proper organization ensures better air circulation, reducing the time the refrigerator needs to cool its contents.
4. Regularly Clean and Maintain the Refrigerator
Cleaning the refrigerator every 1-3 months prevents dust and dirt from clogging the cooling vents.
Dirty vents force the compressor to work harder, consuming more electricity.
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and reduces energy waste.
Conclusion
We have always wasted electricity without knowing it
