What should I use to clean the refrigerator

The refrigerator is a place to store food. Both raw and cooked food will be put into the refrigerator. However, in summer, the weather is hot. If there are a lot of things in the refrigerator, they will easily become smelly and cause a lot of stains if they are not handled in time. Over time, these stains will be very difficult to clean. So if you want to thoroughly clean the stains in the refrigerator, how should you clean it?

How to clean a refrigerator

1. Before cleaning, we must first cut off the power supply, then take out all the food inside and place them in the designated place.

2. After that, we need to take out the shelves, boxes, bottle frames, etc., but since these are fragile items, we must be careful when placing them. We can use a rag dipped in water mixed with detergent to wipe the accessories. After cleaning, wipe them dry with a rag, or place them in a ventilated and dry place to let them dry naturally. The drawers in the freezer are pulled out one by one, and the frozen food can also be left in place.

3. If there is ice in the freezer, we can let the ice melt naturally, and then put some towels under the refrigerator. This way, when the ice melts and turns into water and flows out, it will not wet the floor.

4. First, we can wipe its outer shell and door surface with a slightly damp cloth. For the handle, if there are a lot of oil stains, we can use some detergent to scrub it, which will have a better effect.

5. As for some internal facilities, such as switches, lights, thermostats, etc., we need to wring out the rag before wiping.

6. For some clean ice, it is best not to use sharp objects to scrape it off, as this may easily scratch the refrigerator and also easily damage the evaporator, thus causing refrigerator malfunction. After we finish cleaning, we should open the door and let the refrigerator dry naturally.

7. After cleaning the entire unit, replug the power supply and check whether all components are installed correctly and whether they can be used normally.

How much does it cost to clean a refrigerator?

If you hire a professional craftsman, the price will be around 70-100 yuan. Of course, we can also clean it ourselves, which can save money, but it will take more time and effort.

What are the benefits of cleaning the refrigerator

Some bacteria have strong abilities to survive and reproduce, especially some bacteria and viruses which are more resistant to low temperatures, such as hepatitis virus, influenza virus, E. coli, Salmonella and other germs. The low temperature environment of 0-10 degrees Celsius in the refrigerator is a breeding ground for their growth and reproduction. These bacteria will produce many metabolic gases during their growth and metabolism, such as methane, hydrogen sulfide, methyl mercaptan, methylamine and other smelly gases, which will pollute the air and food and pose a certain threat to our health. When the bacteria grow to a certain size, the gas they emit becomes stronger. When so many smelly gases mix together, the refrigerator will produce an unpleasant odor. At this time, you should clean the inside of the refrigerator.
