Fridge Care Tips: How to Keep Your Refrigerator Running Smoothly

Your fridge works 24/7 to keep your food fresh, but we often forget to give it the love it deserves. Regular care not only keeps it running efficiently but also saves electricity and extends its life. Here are some simple yet effective tips from the OdiDoor team to keep your fridge in top condition:

1. Don’t Overstuff the Fridge

Air needs to circulate inside your refrigerator. Overloading it blocks vents and reduces cooling efficiency.

2. Check Door Seals

A loose door seal allows cold air to escape, making your fridge work harder. Test it with a piece of paper — if it slips out easily, it’s time to replace the seal.

3. Clean Coils Twice a Year

Dusty condenser coils make your fridge consume more power. Unplug and gently clean the coils at the back or bottom using a brush or vacuum.

4. Keep It Level

If your fridge isn’t sitting level, the doors might not close properly, causing leaks in cold air. Use a bubble level and adjust the feet as needed.

5. Keep It Cool – But Not Too Cool

The ideal fridge temperature is between 3°C and 5°C. Anything lower can overwork the system and increase your bill.

6. Deodorize Naturally

Place a bowl of baking soda inside to absorb odors. It’s a cheap and chemical-free way to keep your fridge smelling fresh.

7. Don’t Ignore Noises or Water Leaks

Weird noises or puddles around your fridge are red flags. Book a quick visit with an OdiDoor technician before it turns into a bigger problem.
