Is it worth going for an energy-efficient fridge freezer?
Cooling appliances notch up a staggering £1.2 billion in electricity bills each year. After central heating, refrigeration appliances are the biggest domestic users of energy, because they’re on all the time. So when you’re ready to replace a fridge freezer, it’s worth looking for those rated A+ or A++, as they’re the most energy-efficient and cheapest to run. In the past, we’ve found energy labels aren’t always accurate, so we calculate our own running costs for each fridge freezer we test. You can find the running costs for all the models we’ve tested within each individual fridge freezer review.
