    Things to Consider

    Before purchasing a new fridge, keep these important factors in mind to ensure it meets your needs:

    • Kitchen Space: Measure the height, width, and depth of the intended space, accounting for ventilation. Allow for at least 25mm of space on each side, 30mm at the back, and 50mm on top.
    • Doorway Size: Ensure your fridge can fit through entranceways and interior doors by measuring them before making a purchase.
    • Energy Rating and Running Costs: The fridge’s energy efficiency impacts your running costs. Look for models with high energy ratings to minimise electricity bills.
    • Capacity: Choose a fridge that meets your cooling space requirements. Larger families may benefit from larder fridges, while smaller households may prefer compact options.

    Now that you have the essential knowledge to make an informed decision, we invite you to explore our extensive range of fridges to discover the perfect model for your kitchen. For your peace of mind, all our freestanding fridges come with a 3-Year Guarantee, while our built-in fridges and selected freestanding models are backed by a 5-Year Guarantee when registered within 90 days.

    FAQs

    Expand allCollapse all
    What size fridge do I need for my kitchen?

    The size of your fridge depends on your kitchen space and storage needs. Measure the designated area to ensure a proper fit and consider your household size—larger families may require taller larder fridges, while smaller homes may benefit from compact or under-counter models.

    How often should I clean my fridge?

    It's recommended to clean your fridge every 3 to 4 months. Regular cleaning helps maintain hygiene and efficiency. Wipe down surfaces, check for expired food, and ensure that seals are clean to prevent air leakage.

    What is the best temperature for my fridge?

    The ideal temperature for your Blomberg fridge is between 3°C and 5°C (37°F to 41°F). This range effectively preserves food freshness while inhibiting bacterial growth. For accurate monitoring, consider using an appliance thermometer placed in a glass of water on the middle shelf. For more information, read our FAQ that answers the question what is the best temperature for my fridge in more detail.

    How can I improve my fridge’s energy efficiency?

    To enhance your fridge's energy efficiency, consider the following tips:

    • Keep the Fridge Full: A full fridge retains cold air better than an empty one. However, avoid overcrowding it, as this can restrict airflow and hinder cooling efficiency.
    • Check Door Seals: Ensure that the door seals are airtight. Regularly inspect them for any damage or debris that may prevent a proper seal, as air leaks can cause the fridge to work harder to maintain temperature.
    • Maintain Proper Temperature: Set your fridge to the recommended temperature (around 3°C or 37°F) and your freezer to -18°C (0°F) for optimal energy use.
    • Avoid Heat Sources: Position your fridge away from heat sources like ovens, stoves, or direct sunlight. Heat can cause the fridge to work harder to maintain its internal temperature.
    What should I do if my fridge is making unusual noises?

    If you notice loud or unusual noises coming from your fridge, it may indicate a problem. Start by checking if the fridge is level, ensuring there are no obstructions around it, and inspecting internal components. If the noise persists or is frequent, it’s best to consult a professional. If you're unsure about the source of the noise or need further assistance, contact Blomberg Customer Service. Our experts can help diagnose the issue and arrange for technical support if needed. For more information, please read our detailed FAQ that answers the question should my fridge be making a noise.
