Refrigerators take warmth from inside the system and release it outside.
The warmer the air around the equipment, the harder (and less efficiently) it has to work to get rid of the warmth. So where you place your refrigerator or freezer can make a huge difference to its efficiency, consider:
- placing your equipment as far as possible from heat sources such as radiators, air-conditioning equipment, ovens and cookers.
- creating enough space around the unit to let it draw in and expel air through its vents. If in doubt, your supplier will advise you on how much space is required.
