Hate defrosting your fridge or freezer? You’re not alone!!! Before you invest in your next cooling appliance take a look at your lifestyle. How convenient is defrosting your freezer? Could you be spending your precious time more wisely? Most of us could.
An auto defrost fridge or freezer is an asset to any home as they prevent you from ever having to defrost your appliance. Auto defrost is also known as frost free depending upon the brand you choose.
Why choose an auto defrost fridge or freezer?
Ice build up prevents your appliance working efficiently. It means it has to work harder to keep your food fresh or frozen, causing more energy is used. As we know, energy wastage can lead to mammoth electricity bills. And if your appliance isn’t working properly food spoilage will occur, which can also be costly.
How does it work?
An auto defrost fridge works by periodically heating the appliance (not enough to damage or defrost your food) and using a blower fan to keep moisture out of the appliance. This combination of heating and air circulation ensures ice doesn’t build up on the cooling element.
Which auto defrost fridge?
At Appliances Online one of our best selling auto defrost fridges is the Beko TLDA625W which comes in white or silver to suit your kitchen. The auto defrost feature is not limited to top of the range models, many mid-range or base range are equipped with this. So, here’s to never defrosting again! Hurrah!
