There is a lot of heat in the entire country including North India and in such a situation, people are using AC, coolers and fridge a lot. But do you know that misuse of the fridge can endanger your safety? Many times small negligence can cause dangerous incidents like fridge blasts.
Fridge can become a danger sticking to the wall
It is often seen that people adjacent to the wall due to lack of space. But this is a serious mistake. The compressor behind the fridge requires air so that it can remain cold. The air flow stops when sticking to the wall, which leads to overheating and the risk of blasts.
What distance should be there between the wall and the fridge?
It is necessary to keep the fridge at least 15 to 20 inches (about 1.5 feet) away from the wall. This will not only reduce the effect of heat, but the fridge will work better and its age will also increase. This applies to all types of fridge (from single door to double door).
Take care of empty fridge correctly
If you are not using the fridge for a few days and it is empty, it would be better to switch off it. Keeping a closed fridge in the current condition can cause voltage fluckleation or overheating, which can cause danger.
Where to keep the fridge? The correct location is necessary
Keep the fridge in a ventilated place. A place where there is air movement from all sides. Keeping the fridge in a sunny or completely closed place reduces its cooling efficiency and the machine starts to overheat.
Keep these things in mind for the safety of the fridge:
Keep a distance of at least 15-20 inches from the wall
Do not leave the empty fridge for a long time
Keep the fridge in ventilation place
Please check the status of socket and electric outlet (not overloaded)
Clean the compressor and back side from time to time
Keeping these easy but important things in mind, you will not only be able to keep your fridge right for a long time, but will also ensure the safety of the family.
