The clever housewife’s trick to prevent frost formation in the freezer

NB : This should be done especially for foods in the upper part of the refrigerator, that is, where they are most exposed to light.

Good to know How often should the refrigerator be defrosted? Older models should be defrosted every two months or more often if necessary. With newer, more modern refrigerators, you don’t need to defrost them as often, but it’s important to clean them at least twice a month.

If too much frost has accumulated in the freezer, you need to defrost it quickly. Ideally, you should then empty the freezer to defrost it perfectly so that you can remove all those annoying blocks of ice. Next, you’ll want to line the walls of your freezer with pieces of foil to form a protective layer over the entire surface. This way any excess ice will just stick to the paper.

Once the foils are correctly attached in all compartments, you can fill the freezer. This ensures that excess ice does not form. The motor is then not forced to increase its power and therefore does not use too much energy to protect your frozen food. It is also advisable to wrap your products with these silver foils: the advantage of aluminum foil is that it effectively resists the cold, prevents the penetration of odors and preserves the taste of the food.
