Refrigerators

One slogan for a refrigerator might be "Don't be a fool, keep your food cool". Another could be "Keep your foods nice and chill without a big electricity bill".

Actually, you can get refrigerator freezers in both configurations. From what I was told the original configuration had the freezer on bottom. This was because you had to buy big cubes of ice to keep things cold and you didn't have to lift the block as high and the melting block didn't get everything wet.

Because the temperature inside the refrigerator is colder than the temperature outside

Open the door, put in the elephant, and close the door.

The last thing the Grinch took out of the fridge was the leftover Who-hash, of course! That green meanie couldn't resist a midnight snack, even if it meant stealing from the Whos down in Whoville. But hey, who can blame him? Who-hash is delicious!

William Perry was named "The Refridgerator" because of his large size. Before being a Fullback he was a defvensive linemen.

At the beginning of 1920, the average price of gasoline in the United States was 17 cents per gallon. However, the gas shortage occurred in 1920, and as such, the average price of gas rose to about 30 cents a gallon in less than 6 months during 1920.

You could keep an unopened can in the refrigerator for several month or possibly longer. I'd still use the "best by" date on the can as a guide for shelf life. Keep an eye on the condition of the can because the increase in humidity could make the can start to rust.

The Kelvinator became the first mass-produced home refrigerator. In 1919 General Motors bought a small refrigerator company called Frigidaire, which also made compression refrigerators. By 1920 about 75,000 homes had refrigerators

I THINK there is a ban on CFC refrigerators in many countries already.

You would have to check your particular state's statutes to determine if the so-called 'lemon law' applied to appliances. .

Where would I check to see if there is a lemon law for appliances in Pennsylvania?

ADDED: In Pennsylvania it appears that the Consumer Protection Division is a part of the Attorney General's Office - see below link:

Refrigerator but the abbreviation is Fridge. Crazy but true.

The growth of bacteria slows but does not stop. The food will still spoil but at a much slower rate.

Not enough information. To answer this question, you would need to provide the model number and probably the serial number as well.

First, check if the power source is working and the refrigerator is properly plugged in. If it's still not working, make sure the temperature settings are correct. Clean the coils and check the door seals for any damage. If the issue persists, it may require professional repair.

The room and the refrigerator are a closed system. The fridge, being a machine, has efficiency which is less than 1. Therefore it creates more "waste" energy which is released into the room than it cools the insides of the fridge.

To fix a refrigerator motor, check for any blocked ventilation, clean the condenser coils, and ensure the motor is powered on. If the motor still does not work, consider replacing it or consult a professional technician for further assistance.

There is no easy answer to this.

Firstly, it depends on the fridge. Obviously a huge double-door refrigerator will consume a lot more energy than a tiny bar fridge.

Also, they only consume a lot of energy when the compressor is running. The compressor will turn on when the thermostat (ie: temperature sensor) shows that the temperature inside the fridge has gone up too far. How quickly this happens (and how often) will depend the temperature outside the fridge, compared to what temperature you've set the dial to inside.

So, a fridge will consume far less energy on a Winter's night, than it would in the middle of a hot Summer's day. And it will consume more energy the lower you set the temperature dial, because it has to work harder to keep the fridge colder.

Having said all of that, an average 16 cubic-foot frost-free fridge has a consumption rate of around 700 watts. But, it might only be operating at the full 700 Watts, say, 20% of the time. So, your power consumption in that case would be 140 watts per hour, or 0.14 KWh (kilowatt-hours - the correct term for power consumption).

Generally, for a new fridge in the store, you can look at the sticker on the fridge, which will tell you its consumption rate in KWh. Or, if it's an old fridge you already own and the stickers are all gone, you could buy a power consumption meter from the hardware store. Basically, you unplug the fridge (oven, TV, whatever), plug in the meter, then plug the fridge into the meter. Run it for a couple of days, and the meter will tell you how much power your device has been consuming.

To further complicate things, the wattage rating actually depends on the power source used. In America, you have 110 volts, whereas in Australia, for example, the voltage is 240. This actually changes the wattage calculation, so the same fridge will have difference consumption ratings in different countries. The 700 watt example above was obtained from the US Department of Energy, so it applies to a 110-volt power supply.

I told you there was no easy answer!!!

The average voltage a house outlet will give actually depends on how far of a distance the house is from a transformer on the pole. If the house is fairly close to the transformer, it will probably give around 120 volts. However, if the house is a bit far from the transformer, it will probably give around 107 volts.

Most likely made by a robot machine. IE: more better it is maybe 30 feet of small copper or aluminum tubing wound in a back and forth coil pattern to fit the required area in the freezer. Metal fins may be attached to help move the cold into the freezer as air is blown over the coil.

Cold air is denser that warm air, so putting it at the top allows the cold air to fall downwards, displacing any warmer air back towards the cooling element. It sort of maintains a certian degree of circulation and helps keep the temperature more even. If the cooling element was at the bottom, the cold air would just stagnate in the bottom, while warmer air might still be present near the top of the refrigerator.

Original answer:

3600 watts

Updated answer:

That depends on the tag that is affixed to the refrigerator. Each refrigerator will require a different current, and therefore the amount of load will vary between models. For U.S. homes, a dedicated circuit is not required so most "normally-sized" refrigerators will require less than 12 amps (80% of 15 amps in a 15-amp 120 volt circuit) or less than 1440 watts. Larger or commercial refrigerators may require more than that, but for most homes, 1440 watts is a safe maximum for a refrigerator.
