Tips to save refrigerator electricity with just one sheet of paper

The part of the refrigerator door usually has a rubber layer around it called a rubber gasket, which has the effect of keeping heat, keeping the door closed and saving energy. If the rubber gasket is open, the door of the refrigerator will not be closed, causing a lot of cold air to escape, so the refrigerator has to work more, causing more electricity.

With refrigerators that have been used for a long time, the condition of the rubber gasket is open quite often, but not many people pay attention. To check, take a sheet of A4 paper, clip it to the door and close the cabinet.

Then, use your hand to pull out the A4 sheet of paper. If the paper cannot be removed, the rubber gasket of your refrigerator is still in good working order. Conversely, if the paper is easily pulled out, it means the gasket is open.

The fastest way to fix this situation is to use a hair dryer to dry along the rubber gasket for a few minutes. Then, use the paper to check again in the same way. If the paper is still easily pulled out, the next day you should call a mechanic and change the rubber gasket to save electricity.

Some tips to help save electricity when using the refrigerator:

  1. Clean the cabinet periodically, both check the food and prevent odors.
  2. Regularly check and maintain the refrigerator.
  3. Arrange food reasonably, divided into compartments for easy access and storage.
