Have you?
Have you?
Have you cleaned the coils and operating parts of your refrigerator in a while? You might want to check it out and see how much fuzz is covering everything. Your fridge will thank you for it.

Seriously, good advice. Same goes for the AC units for your house, both window type or central air............ clean them well, it does matter.

Yes!
Cheapo Sears fridge would not keep ice cream frozen. It does now. I think the technology should be better by now.
Related, other PSA:
When shopping for an appliance, make sure the Energy Star info is not an ESTIMATE. I failed to notice that with above fridge.
Expressing my disappointment with the the Energy Star folks only got them to put blame on the EPA. {*&kers.
And the Energy Star ratings are a moving target, i.e., the consumption "brackets" get tightened every six months or so. Comparing appliances is not easy!

All kidding aside, it is a good idea to clean the coils once in awhile. A/C units too, especially in hot climates like here.
Ah, nothing relieves the discomfort of GAS pains like the sound of the UPS truck rumbling down your street. It's like the musician's Beano.
