Make Your Fridge More Efficient at Your Apartment near The Villages, FL

When was the last time you checked to make sure your refrigerator was operating at maximum energy capacity? Your fridge is an important part of your apartment – it helps to preserve your food and it consumes energy. And, while our fridges at PepperTree Apartment Homes are modern and work well, it doesn’t hurt to be sure that your fridge is operating in optimal condition so your food stays cold and unspoiled, and so you’re not using more energy than necessary.

Consider the following tips to make sure your refrigerator is able to work at an optimal level:

• Allow enough space between food and containers so that the cold air can easily circulate.

• Wipe down all door seals frequently. Crumbs and other food bits can get easily trapped, which causes refrigerator temperatures to fluctuate.

• Set your fridge to 38-40 degrees; anything higher or lower will cause bacteria to grow more rapidly.

• Try the “dollar bill test.” Close the fridge door on a dollar bill. If the fridge is properly sealed, it will hold tight to the money. If the dollar bill falls out, or can move around easily, you may want to contact our maintenance department to have your fridge’s seals checked.

At PepperTree Apartment Homes, we said goodbye to bland, white walls and hello to a world of color. We offer professionally designed color schemes (beige, taupe, or gray), the color of which will be reflected throughout your apartment in the wall color, ceiling fans, carpeting, and so much more.
