Energy consumption of a Side by Side refrigerator

Tatsache: ein Side by Side Kühlschrank oder amerikanischer Kühlschrank ist groß. Das heißt, dass das Gerät ein großes Fassungsvolumen hat. Die meisten Modelle von General Electric haben einen Nutzinhalt von etwa 527 bis 765 Litern, die Modelle der INO27JSPF Serie haben sogar eine Kapazität von 765 Litern Netto! Bei einem Side by Side Kühlschrank denken viele Leute denn auch, dass der Energieverbrauch von einem Side by Side Kühlschrank hoch sein wird. Stimmt das eigentlich?

What does the energy consumption of a Side by Side refrigerator depend on?

How much a Side by Side refrigerator consumes depends on various factors. An important factor for the consumption of your Side by Side refrigerator is how often you open the door(s). The more often you open the door, the more often the cabinet has to adjust to the temperature.
What also plays a role in consumption is how fully you load the cabinet. Completely fully loaded is not a good idea, because a side by side refrigerator is most energy efficient at about 80% load. Especially where the cold air flows out, you should not pack the cabinet full. Otherwise you will block the optimal air flow through the cabinet.
Maybe new to you, but a brand new refrigerator will cool faster if you load it (up to 80%) than if you will leave it cold first.

Is your fridge sometimes too small for you? Can you not find certain foods back? Then perhaps the time is ripe for an American refrigerator, also probably called an American fridge. 'Side by Side' refers to the fact that the doors of the refrigerator are next to each other, instead of under each other as in the usual refrigerators. In a side by side refrigerator there is a door on the left and on the right. Usually, the refrigerator section is on the right and the freezer section is on the left. Because the doors are next to each other, an American refrigerator is also wider than conventional cabinets.

Origin and development of the Side by Side refrigerator

General Electric is the inventor of the Side by Side refrigerator. At the beginning of the 20th century, the American company started manufacturing American refrigerators. These models initially looked different from today's models. There was a freezer compartment in the refrigerator compartment at first, but later General Electric produced its cabinets with the freezer compartment next to the refrigerator compartment. The innovative company offers the largest and widest range of side-by-side refrigerators. Quality and technology are the guiding principles in the development of new models.
