Fresh and green fridgeImprovements and new developments have made a difference to the range of fridges on the market, and the choice even more complex. Here you can find some of the best tips on how to choose a new fridge.

Lets, say you have recently moved to your new house. First of all, you will need to have all your place perfectly cleaned. I advise you too book the professional post builders cleaning team in Herne Hill. Then, the next most important thing is to get a new fridge which will fit the new interior. Here are the best guides for you when choosing a new fridge. 

Standard fridges. Standard fridges have an ice box for storing frozen food. The temperature of the ice box and how long food can be stored depends upon its star rating. Ice boxes can be used for storing commercially frozen food and for making ice cubes. Storage time depends upon the rating of the ice box. One star - 1week, -6C Two star – 1 month, -12C Three star – 3 months, -18C Four star – 6 months, -18C The fridge has a smaller differential in temperature between top and bottom compared with a larder fridge. Look for push-button defrost, which will defrost the emptied ice box while you leave food in the rest of the fridge. The fridge automatically restarts afterwards. Under-counter designs have more limited fresh food storage than larder fridges.

Larder fridges. Larder fridges don't have an ice box. They are coldest just above the salad box and warmest at the top. Look for an auto-defrost function, which clears ice from the back wall so that melted water drains to the rear and evaporates away.

Clean fridge with extras

Added extras. Look for a good selection of shelf positions for storing different-size items. Some shelves can be tilted towards the back for storing open bottles that may otherwise drip, while shelves that have fold-up sections help to accommodate tall jars and so on. Glass shelves prevent things tipping over and help to maintain the temperature when the door is open, but are noisy. There are fridges that show you whether the temperature inside is too warm. Humidity controls for salad drawers prevent moisture being lost from foods with a high-water content, such as lettuce, to prolong their crispness.

Energy labels. Energy labels on all fridges in the shops show how much electricity is used over a whole year and indicate which models are more efficient to run. An 'A' rating is the most efficient, while a 'G' rating is the least. The label also indicates useful information for comparing models, indlucing capacity for storing fresh food and the capacity and star rating of the ice box if there is one. 

I believe, you have chosen the best fridge for you house.
