How to Keep a Refrigerator Running

• 1). Keep the condenser coils clean and free of dust. Neglecting this will result in your refrigerator working harder than it has to. This can amount to higher energy bills and early breakdown. By simply vacuuming the dust and debris every few months you will save your refrigerator a lot of wear and tear.
  
  
• 2). Clean the drain hole and frequently check the drip pan. Food and condensation can build up in both of these areas, causing your unit to work harder than it needs to. Keeping these areas clean and free of debris can add years to the life of your refrigerator.
  
  
• 3). Replace the water filter in your refrigerator every six months. It will keep the water you use for ice cubes clean and safe to drink.
  
  
• 4). Make sure your unit is level. If not the doors may not close the correct way, which can lead to damage and energy loss. It is quite simple to do and can mean lower energy bills and less stress on your unit.
