In addition to not paying attention to the daily maintenance of the chest freezer, placing the chest home freezer in an unsuitable location may also affect its various functions and service life. Where should the chest type freezer be stored? What should be paid attention to when using it everyday?
Where should the chest freezer be placed?
Precautions when the chest freezer is not in use
How do I store food in a chest freezer?
1. Chest freezers should be placed away from heat sources and away from direct sunlight. Because of the need for heat exchange with the outside world when working, both heat is radiated to the outside world through condensers. The longer the working time of the cabinet, the larger the power consumption and the poorer the cooling effect.
2. The chest freezer should be placed in a place with low humidity. Since the refrigerator cabinet, condenser and compressor are made of metal materials, if the air humidity is too high, these parts will rust and shorten the life of the refrigerator. At the same time, the humid and overheating environment will cause condensation on the surface of the freezer and affect the performance of the appliance.
3. The chest home freezer should be placed in a well-ventilated place. If the freezer is piled up with debris or is too close to the wall, it is not conducive to heat dissipation and will affect the cooling effect. There should be a space of at least 30cm in height on the top surface of the refrigerator, and at least 10cm in space on the back and both sides to facilitate heat dissipation.
4. Chest freezers should be placed on a flat, solid floor, and the compressor should be level. This is not only for safety reasons, but also allows the compressor to work smoothly, reducing vibration and noise.
5. Chest home freezers should not be placed in areas where the temperature is too low. Because the temperature is too low, the compressor is difficult to start, which makes the refrigerating compartment freezer poorly cooled and cannot be overcome. The refrigerator can turn on the temperature compensation switch of the refrigerating compartment.
6. Chest freezers should not be placed in a flammable, explosive and corrosive environment. Also do not place such items inside.
7. Do not place heavy objects on the top of the refrigerator to prevent the object from falling due to the switch and causing family injuries.
1. Power off the chest type freezer and remove all items stored in the freezer;
2. Open the door of the freezer and remove the plug at the bottom drain hole. After all the frost in the freezer has completely melted into water and drained off, wipe the residual water with a clean towel;
3. Back to the drain hole plug, keep it open to completely dry the moisture inside the chest home freezer;
4. Place the chest freezer in a dry and ventilated place, and cover the freezer with a plastic cover to prevent the electrical components of the freezer from being damaged by moisture and dust on the outer surface of the freezer due to excessive humidity for a long time;
5. During the storage period of the chest freezer, it is best to open it regularly and check the cabinet door for signs of mildew. If so, clean the inner surface of the freezer again;
6. If conditions permit, you can open the cover on the side of the radiator on the side of the chest home freezer to properly clean the dust and debris in the compressor part of the freezer. During the cleaning process, you must not damage or damage the freezer refrigeration system pipes and accessories.
If you are not sure about food safety, throw away suspicious food and don't make fun of your health. Because some foods are difficult to identify with the naked eye, when the food has a strange color and smell, you should throw it into the trash can even if you can't see the mold. When storing food in a freezer, it is best to wrap it in two layers, or use a sealed bag to prevent air from entering. Some fruits, such as bananas, should not be refrigerated. Potatoes and onions can be stored in a cool and dry place, and do not need to be placed in a chest freezer. The remaining meals should be placed in a sealed lunch box, refrigerated after cooking for two hours, and eaten within 3-5 days. Raw meat is wrapped in plastic bags and placed on the bottom of the freezer to prevent gravy from contaminating other foods.
Crystals appear on the surface of food stored in the chest home freezer for a long time, but it is safe for eating, because no bacteria will survive in the freezer at minus few degrees. In addition, the nutritional value of frozen foods is well preserved. But they will definitely taste worse than fresh food.
Chest type freezer is a mechanical refrigeration container for storing food and raw materials. Under normal time and certain conditions, it can play a role in preserving some food and raw materials, thereby maintaining its quality and preventing food and raw materials from spoiling. But the freezer is not a safe, and the food and ingredients put in the refrigerator and freezer are not absolutely safe. Because the chest freezer uses low temperature to control the growth and reproduction of microorganisms and enzymes, thereby preventing food spoilage and deterioration, and under low temperature conditions, not all microorganisms have stopped their activities, so the food and raw materials stored in the freezer have been stored for too long Will spoil and grow mold. Therefore, refrigerators and freezers should not store food and raw materials for too long.
In order to ensure the effect of refrigeration, it should be used below the effective load limit capacity of the chest freezer, and the refrigerator and freezer cannot be stuffed.
Food and raw materials in refrigerators and freezers must be separated from raw and cooked to avoid cross-contamination of raw and cooked foods. Refrigerators and freezers that store raw foods must not store cooked foods. Chest home freezers that store cooked foods must also not store raw foods. At the same time, raw foods, raw materials and semi-finished products. , Semi-finished products and finished products should also be stored separately. Larger refrigerators and freezers can be stored separately in separate closed refrigerated (freezing) rooms. Household refrigerators should follow the principle of storage.
When the same refrigerated (freezing) room stores more food or raw materials, partitions and shelves should be used to prevent them from being stacked. Directly imported food should be placed in a covered container. When bulk food is contained, its containers such as basins and bowls should be covered or sealed with plastic wrap. The bottom of the food container should not be in direct contact with food and raw materials. Foods that need to be stored for a long time should be stored in non-toxic plastic bags. Non-frozen products and non-packaged products will increase the temperature of frozen foods and become a source of contamination, so they cannot be mixed and stored. Should follow the "first in, first out" principle, and eat or use food and ingredients within the shelf life.
