A fridge runs about half the time with out opening the door. Opening the door many times a month might add about 30 hours to the regular run time of the fridge. 30 hours of running a fridge costs about .90 dollar. If you open the fridge about 10 times a day for a month that would mean you open the fridge 90 times.
so each opening of the fridge probably costs about .001 dollars. or 1/10 of a penny.
Its inserting very hot items or leaving the door open for a long time while deciding what to eat that will cost more.
obviously refrigerators run less in the winter unless you heat your house irregularly high and they run more in the summer.
And again the price will be a bit more for each door use in the summer as the temp escaping in to the fridge when you open it is hotter.

Why is it important to avoid leaving the fridge door open?
Leaving the fridge door open can cause the temperature inside to rise, leading to food spoilage and increased energy consumption. This can result in food going bad faster and higher electricity bills.
How long can a fridge door be left open before it starts affecting the temperature inside?
Leaving a fridge door open for more than a few minutes can start to affect the temperature inside, especially if the room is warm. It's best to keep the door closed as much as possible to maintain the fridge's temperature and efficiency.
Is it really true that when a refrigerator is open for so long the electricity will increase?
Yes. The refrigerator is set to hold a certain temperature, that's probably cooler than the environment where the fridge is sest. When you open the door, the cold air will leak out, so the fridge will start working to get the temperature down again. If you were to shut the door the temperature inside would drop rather quickly, and the fridge could stop working for awhile. But as long as the door is open, the temperature will remain high and the fridge will keep working. And as long as it's working it will be using up electric energy.
Can leaving a fridge open break it?
Leaving a fridge open for an extended period of time can cause it to work harder to maintain a cool temperature, which can lead to increased wear and tear on the compressor. This can potentially result in the fridge breaking down sooner than it would have otherwise.
How long does it take for a fridge to cool down after the door has been left open?
The time it takes for a fridge to cool down after the door has been left open can vary, but typically it can take anywhere from 30 minutes to a few hours, depending on factors like the temperature outside the fridge, the amount of food inside, and the efficiency of the fridge.

What uses more electricity - keeping a fridge door open for a while or constantly opening and closing it during this time?
Every time you open your fridge door - or indeed your freezer's door - it allows cold air to fall out onto the floor of the room. If this is allowed to happen for more than a few moments the thermostat inside the fridge or freezer, sensing that too much cold air has gone, will turn on the fridge's motor and compressor pump to cool down the new air. The more the compressor pump and its motor are forced to run unnecessarily, the more electricity would be used, with the consequence that the money to pay for that electricity would simply be wasted. Knowing those "facts of life" it should be easy to understand why it is better to keep the door closed as much as possible instead of leaving it to hang open for more than the short time it takes to load or unload food from the fridge.

Can you put an open beer in the fridge to keep it cold?
Yes, you can put an open beer in the fridge to keep it cold.
Why can't you put open cans in the fridge?
Putting open cans in the fridge can cause the food inside to absorb odors from other items in the fridge and can also lead to contamination from bacteria. It is best to transfer the contents of an open can into a sealed container before storing in the fridge.
Does having the window open at home while the air conditioner is on cost you more?
If you are trying to cool your home or room to a temperature that is lower than the temperature outside, then the electricity needed will be much greater if the window is open. So, in short, yes.AnswerOn a warm day, leaving your windows open will allow warm air to replace the air that your air conditioner just worked to cool. Thus, your air conditioner will have to continue to run, which uses electricity, to re-cool this air. Of course, using more electricity will cost you more money.
