A freezer that is integrated is an ideal option for those looking to save money on energy bills, since they are more efficient than freestanding models.

The ability to keep your freezer full is vital to ensure energy efficiency. When you open your refrigerator the cold air escapes and warm air is pushed into the freezer. This uses lots of electricity. Keeping your freezer full will ensure that cold air stays inside and that the warm air is absorbed by the contents inside and will lower the energy costs. You can achieve this by moving your food items to the front and sides of the freezer, then stuffed any empty spaces with shipping peanuts or newspaper (available in the majority of supermarkets).

Another good way to reduce your energy costs is to identify the items you use most frequently and placing those in the easiest access position. You won't have to move items around as often in your freezer, which could cause freezer burn.

The latest refrigerators and freezers have the feature of "fast chill" or "fast freeze' that allows you to quickly cool down your new purchases to the perfect temperature. This is especially helpful when you are unloading a huge grocery delivery and you need to get the frozen or chilled goods at the proper temperature as quickly as you can.

The integrated fridge freezer can be installed as a fixed or a'sliding' model, depending on the way the appliance is mounted within the cabinet.

Fixed integrated fridge Advanced freezers cannot be removed since they are constructed inside the cabinet and the fridge is affixed directly to it.

The most efficient energy ratings are A+A+ and A. Companies are legally required to display the energy rating on their website so that customers can compare ratings when shopping. However, we discovered that few companies had any alternatives that were more than A on their sites.

Spiral freezers not fully integrated with the refrigeration and process control systems can result in significant energy waste in a production facility. When there is a change in the product and the parameters of the spiral freezer are not updated and result in a warm product that does not pass quality tests. This is usually the result of temporary setpoints changes made in response to production issues, but then forgotten, resulting in an unintentional loss of products and energy waste. Integrating the spiral control system with the refrigeration systems and process systems allows the system to automatically update parameters based on the product being manufactured. This reduces energy consumption and helps reduce waste. VaCom Technologies can assist plants in this process by working with the plant to define the parameters for each line of product and then integrating spiral freezer controls into the plant control system.
