Tips to lower the bill
- Keep the freezer in a cool, ventilated spot away from direct sunlight.
- Set the thermostat to medium, not the coldest, once food is frozen.
- Open the lid for the shortest time possible and defrost ice buildup regularly.
- Check your bill slab: a few extra units can push you into a higher per-unit rate.
Common questions
- Do freezers run all 24 hours?
- No. The compressor cycles on and off, so effective running hours are usually 8 to 14 per day.
- How do I find the wattage?
- Check the rating plate or sticker on the back of the freezer, or the user manual.
