Frost Free Fridge Freezer Sale Frost-free freezers do not require defrosting as they utilize a timer to warm the coils periodically and melt any ice that has piled up. This takes energy, but it also saves time and hassle. Non-frost refrigerator freezers are more energy efficient, cheaper to purchase and last longer. However, they require manual defrosting. 1. Energy efficiency Frost can build up inside the refrigerator and block the shelves, leaving no space to store food. The fridge will also work harder, which can increase the amount of electricity consumed. A frost-free model prevents this by keeping the coils free of frozen. Frost develops when water vapor condenses onto the cold coils that distribute refrigerant. The ice melts when it is in contact with warm air. It's like water beading on an iced tea glass on a hot day. Refrigerators and freezers make up 17% of all domestic energy use in Britain therefore choosing an energy-efficient model can make a a big difference in your monthly bills. Choose models that have the Energy Saving Recommended logo and a good Ecodesign rating from the EU. B&Q offers a range of energy-efficient fridges and freezers. The energy efficiency of a freezer doesn't only come dependent on the amount of power it draws, but also how much heat it produces. Find a frost-free model equipped with an anti-sweat heating element to minimize the amount of condensation inside. These heating elements can be integrated into the frame of a freezer, and are activated by sensors when the temperature rises to 32 degrees Celsius. They use a small amount of energy, but they're far more efficient than manual defrost heaters. Think about the type of refrigerant in the freezer. Some old fridges and freezers contain hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs). These powerful greenhouse gases cause the climate to change and deplete oxygen. The EU is phasing them out and new appliances should only use refrigerants that are free of HFCs, such as R600A and R290. Choose a freezer that uses Greenfreeze as a refrigerant if you want to avoid frost. It is a blend of propane, isobutane, and cyclopentane, which has a low ozone depletion potential. Consider a chest-freezer that also makes use of Greenfreeze. These models do not emit CFCs which means they have less impact on the ozone layer. 2. Convenience If frost covers the freezer, it will stop cold air from reaching your food and forcing the fridge to work harder. This results in higher electricity costs due to the energy loss. Frost-free fridges avoid this by employing a timer as well as a heating coil and temperature sensor to periodically warm the coils, thereby melting any ice that has formed. This method uses less energy than manual freezing and can be done at a time convenient to you. Refrigerator freezers that have NoFrost technology offer even more convenience. When you don't have to defrost the fridge freezer the cold air circulates more efficiently. This creates the perfect environment for your meat and fish as well as salads, which will remain fresher for longer. In our selection, you can find fridge freezers that have NoFrost technology alongside our models that have BioFresh and BioFresh Professional HydroBreeze freshness technologies. These fridge freezers will keep food fresher longer so you can enjoy your favorite meat, seafood and salads whenever you'd like. 3. Style If you're seeking a sleek upright freezer or a compact model that can be stored in the garage, there are a variety of options to think about. Some models have LED interior lighting, while others feature a useful built-in defrost timer to let you know when it's time to clean the evaporator. Check your appliance's manual for more information. A common issue is a accumulation of ice over and below the evaporator which can affect the flow of air and cause temperatures to rise. 4. Storage There are a variety of storage options to pick from at a frost free fridge freezer sale, including doors and shelves that can be adjusted for flexibility. You can also find frost-free models with interior dial thermostats that allow for easy temperature management, and different door designs and finishes to match your style.
