Household appliances

The refrigerator is one of the most heavily used appliances in your kitchen, running 24 hours a day to keep your food safe. To maintain its performance, reduce your energy consumption, and prevent unpleasant odors, it is essential to regularly clean the coils, door seals, and drip tray. At Entretien Pro-Actif, we recommend these simple steps to ensure the longevity of your appliance and protect the quality of your food.

​

Why clean your refrigerator?

• Cooling efficiency: Coils clogged with dust and pet hair lose their heat exchange capacity, forcing the compressor to run longer.

• Energy savings: A clean refrigerator consumes up to 15% less electricity, which translates into savings on your bill.

• Optimal sealing: Dirty or damaged door seals allow cold air to escape and promote frost formation, reducing overall efficiency.

• Hygiene and health: The drip tray collects defrost water; if it is clogged, the water stagnates, creating a risk of mold and bacterial growth.

Consequences of neglect

• Premature wear of the compressor: constant overload can lead to costly breakdowns.

• Degradation of performance: food temperature rises, excessive frost formation, and frequent automatic defrosting.

• High electricity bills: excessive consumption due to inefficient operation.

• Health risk: stagnant water in the drip tray promotes mold and bacteria growth.
