How to save electricity
with refrigerator-freezers
1. Defrost regularly and replace worn door gaskets to
prevent cold air loss. To test gasket, close door ovei
one end of dollar bill. If bill pulls out easily, gasket
is worn.
2. Keep refrigerator temperature setting between 35°
and 40° — freezer setting at 0°. (Use thermometer
to check.)
3. Adjust temperature up 2° or 3° if you’ll be away
several days.
4. Don’t leave door open unnecessarily. Close quickly.
5. Avoid overcrowding. It restricts cold air flow around
food and overworks unit.
6. Before storing foods, remove store wrapping. (Paper
keeps food from chilling properly.)
7. Cover all liquids placed in frost free units. (Moisture
causes frost and needless defrosting.)
8. Cool foods to room temperature before refrigerating
or freezing.
Conserve electricity and you help conserve one or more
of the fuels needed to produce it: natural gas, coal and
oil. Conserve fuels and you help assure that there will
be enough to meet essential needs for electricity in the
future.
When you pass a TP&L office, warehouse, generating
plant or other facility, you’ll see that we’ve turned off
all non-essential lighting. And, in as many other ways as
possible, TP&L is reducing its own uses of electricity.
//you would like additional information on conserving
electricity, call or see the Customer Service
Representative in the TP&L Office.
