Keep Your Food Fresh Longer

4-Door Refrigerator

Fresh Food Is Always Better

I have to ask a question. How well does your refrigerator do its job? If I answer that same question, I am sure mine isn't performing the best it could. Part of that has to do with the fact that my refrigerator is probably 25 or more years old. But other reasons I think it may not be running as good as it could be is because I did not maintain it well when I first purchased it. When I first bought mine, I had no clue that you need to clean the coils that are located on the back of the unit. Another thing I didn't know about was that your freezer works less, the more frozen items you keep in there. I always had a big tray full of ice that sat there since I don't use much, but other than that, I tried to keep things sparse inside the freezer. You want to keep it full, but you don't want to stifle the air circulation so plan accordingly and make sure the air can move. 

As for the refrigerated part of your unit, the same concept is used. If you do not use much room to store groceries and leftovers, you can fill water bottles and use them to help retain the cold air. Remember that every instance you open the door to the fridge, you are allowing warmer air inside. The water bottles will help to keep the warmest part (the door area) of the refrigerator cooler. Another notion you can take is to allow leftovers to cool down before you put them in the fridge. This idea is a little tricky to pull off since you need to worry about bacteria and whatnot, but the cooler the food is, the less strain you put your fridge under. I know it's not always possible to do this, so always use your best judgment when putting away cooked food.
