Fridge Use Tips: Summer season has started and the mercury has crossed 35 degrees. In such a situation, it is natural to remember the fridge. There is not much need for a fridge in winter so it is not given much attention, but with the arrival of summer it becomes necessary. While setting up your fridge this summer, you also have to pay attention to the gap between the wall and the fridge. If there is no gap between the two, your refrigerator may get damaged quickly and the electricity bill will also increase. Let us know how much space there should be between the fridge and the wall.
First understand the need for gap
A gap is required between the fridge and the wall for ventilation. If this gap is not there then air will not be able to pass and the body of the fridge will start remaining hot. If the body of the refrigerator remains hot, its compressor will have to do more work for cooling, due to which electricity consumption will increase and your electricity bill will also increase. Also, if this problem persists, the efficiency of the fridge will also be adversely affected. Therefore it is important to keep a gap between the fridge and the wall.
How much gap is required between the wall and the fridge?
There should be enough distance between these two that air can pass easily. That means the fridge should not be completely adjacent to the wall. If there is a space of 1-2 inches between the wall and the fridge then it is enough. If you are not short of space then you can increase this distance further, but a distance of 1-2 inches is sufficient for ventilation. This will allow air to pass easily and the heat coming out of the fridge will not hit the wall and heat the body of the fridge again.
