17 May 09 How to Install a Refrigerator
Refrigerator and installation? Don’t we just plug it into the socket and it gets going? If this is how you think refrigerators are made operational then this title might have sounded intriguing. Let’s break the bad news, contrary to the popular belief this is not the right way to start using your refrigerator. It requires proper installation before you can use it to its maximum capacity without damaging the machine. In order to install your refrigerator, you need to pass through the following three steps: location setup, transportation, and Installation. Let’s discuss each one of them individually.
Location setup: As we all know a household refrigerator is conceived and designed to be used indoor, so keep it away from direct sun light. Another thing that you need to care about while installing is the proximity of the heat source to the refrigerator. Do not install it near an oven, a dishwasher, a stove, a radiator or any other kind of heat source. The ideal temperature range in which the refrigerator will work effectively and efficiently lies between 55° F (13° C) and 110° F (43° C). Installing a refrigerator in the room that has temperature higher than 110° F (43° C) will damage the machine. Also, give enough breathing space (at least ½”) at the back and at the top of the refrigerator for the air to circulate freely.
Transportation: Moving a refrigerator is slightly tricky. Always move the refrigerator upright, and if it is a problem then consider laying it on its back while transporting. Never move a refrigerator on its side. Once the refrigerator is brought to the desired location, allow at least 30 minutes for the refrigerator to sit upright before switching it on to avoid any internal damage to the machine.
Installation: A proper leveling is an important part of the installation process. If the refrigerator is properly leveled then the refrigerator door would shut by itself, if opened to a 45-degree angle. Set the level at the top and move the refrigerator in its place. If the refrigerator is not properly leveled, remove the front grill from refrigerator’s feet, and use the adjustment screw to either push the front legs of the refrigerator up or down, depending upon the requirement. Leveling screws could be found in the front corners of the leveling feet. If you got a refrigerator with water and ice dispenser facility then connect the supply line to the back of the fridge. Now, run the refrigerator empty for at least 4 hours, before stuffing it with food items and leftovers.
