There are many ways summer can affect your appliances. The last thing you want is for your refrigerator to stop working, spoiling your food, and leaving you with room temperature beverages, or for your washer and dryer to not clean your swimsuits or the mountain of towels properly. Here are a few ways in which summer weather can affect specific appliances:
Refrigerator: The refrigerator works harder during hot weather to maintain the desired temperature inside. If the ambient temperature in your kitchen is high, the compressor may need to run more frequently and for longer periods, leading to increased energy consumption. You need proper ventilation around your refrigerator and clean the condenser coils regularly to improve efficiency.
Washer and Dryer: Summer means more outdoor activities, leading to more laundry. Avoid overloading the washer or running multiple cycles one after another. This just stresses your machine. The high humidity can make it difficult for clothes to dry properly, especially if your laundry room lacks proper ventilation. Make sure the dryer exhaust vent is clear and unobstructed. Dishwasher: When your dishwasher is exposed to excessive heat, it may affect its performance. Avoid running the dishwasher during the hottest parts of the day. Heat from the weather plus heat from the internal workings is a guarantee of trouble.
To protect your appliances during the summer months, consider these general tips:
Maintain a comfortable indoor temperature to reduce the workload on your appliances.
Keep appliances away from direct sunlight or heat sources.
Ensure proper ventilation and airflow around appliances.
Clean or replace filters regularly to maintain optimal performance.
Schedule regular maintenance and inspections for your appliances to catch any potential issues early.
