Refrigerator & Freezer Maintenance Tips
To ensure the appliance is not overworking and runs as efficiently as possible:
- make sure the refrigerator coil is clean and free of dust.
- avoid stressing your refrigerator or freezer’s motor – allow adequate air flow behind the appliance by keeping at least two inches between the wall and the back of the unit.
- keep door seals free of buildup (melted popsicles, etc.).
Following these recommendations will help your refrigerator to work efficiently and prolong its working life.

Should I fix or replace my fridge?
When one of our professionals comes to your home, you will receive an honest answer about whether fixing or replacing your fridge is the smartest financial decision.
One of the things we take into consideration is how long you have owned your refrigerator or freezer. If you own a compact refrigerator, the service life is generally about four to twelve years, while standard refrigerators work anywhere from ten to eighteen years. Your freezer should last anywhere from twelve to twenty years. If you have been performing regular maintenance on your appliances, they will probably keep working for longer than average.
If you’re thinking about replacing your fridge, keep in mind that the best rebates occur around holidays, including President’s Day, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veteran’s Day and Black Friday. If you can hold out and one of these days is approaching, it may save you money in the end.
What can I do to extend my refrigerator's life?
There are a few things you can do to ensure your refrigerator and freezer are working in good condition. You can prolong your refrigerator’s life by:
- Cleaning the refrigerator coils regularly and making sure they are free of dust, pet hair and other debris.
- Allowing adequate airflow behind your fridge’s motor—about two inches of space will suffice.
- Keeping door seals free of buildup, such as melted popsicles and other sticky food residue.
By following these recommendations, you can help your equipment run smoothly and last for a longer period of time.
