The installation of the refrigerator is quite simple. Unlike other appliances, it does not require many connections and configurations unless you have a refrigerator with an Internet connection device or a built-in water dispenser. However, the procedures are simple to follow.

On the other hand, many things can make or break the installation. There are certain things you can do while setting up your refrigerator that can make future work easier. Here are some of the things you can do:

1. Surely you have already decided the place where you are going to install your fridge. Carefully install the appliance. Ask someone to help you. But don’t fit it snugly to the wall. Be sure to leave at least 2-3 inches of space between the wall and the back of the refrigerator. Why should you do this?

The refrigerator emits hot air that it collects from inside. In order for it to blow hot air properly, you need to leave space at the back where the coils push the hot air out. This will give way to an adequate dispersion of heat. By doing so, you can easily regulate the interior temperature and prevent the machine from overworking its motor.

2. You may want to place a thin rug at the bottom of the machine. The mat will make it easier for you to remove the refrigerator when cleaning the coils in the back. If you don’t have other people to help you carry or pull the refrigerator, you should consider putting a rug on the floor so you can easily pull it. This is also ideal if you have a rough floor surface.

3. Please do not plug it in immediately after it has been delivered. Don’t get too excited to use the machine. Most coolers need time to rest first after being transported. In this way, the cooling mechanism will not be overloaded. Let it sit for about half a day. By doing this, you can prevent the machine from being easily damaged in the future.

4. You should install your refrigerator away from kitchen appliances and equipment that produce heat, such as your microwave or gas stove. If your microwave is located on the right side of the kitchen, you should install the refrigerator on the other side of the room.

5. Consider the gateway when installing. Open the refrigerator door and find out if you can still open and walk easily without the obstruction of the refrigerator door. Make sure you can also easily retrieve food inside the fridge without bumping into anything.

You must follow the correct procedures when installing your new refrigerator. Also, use the tips above to prevent future refrigerator problems.
