But even in a small room, it is advisable to place the refrigerator so that it is away from heat sources.

Is your refrigeration unit next to a stove or a radiator? Then move the unit immediately!

It should be located as far away from hot devices as possible.

If the temperature around the refrigerator drops much below +30 degrees, the compressor will start working normally.

Cold production will be carried out without problems. Electricity consumption will decrease.

But if it is hot around the refrigeration device, the device will not exit the intensive operation mode.

In such a situation, the refrigerator will continue to "eat" a lot of electricity. And it may even break down.
