Refrigerator is a large electrical appliance that every household has. Essentially, a refrigerator has a lifespan of decades, and even when it is no longer able to preserve food, it can still be reused. Just place it in the bedroom, and you can use it again. This method is simple, cost-effective, and practical. Let’s explore the specific uses of this.
If you have an old refrigerator that is no longer in use, you need to clean the inside thoroughly. Then, place the refrigerator in a well-ventilated area and let it dry for a few days. This way, you can eliminate certain odors in the refrigerator and keep it clean, which is also beneficial for food preservation.
The Uses of a Faulty Refrigerator
Use it for storing clothes
Inside the refrigerator, there are multiple layers of glass panels, similar to the partitions in a wardrobe. You can take advantage of this design to store clothes. For example, some seasonal clothes can be stored in the refrigerator when not in use to keep them organized.
On the refrigerator door, there is a sealing strip that can make the refrigerator door close more tightly. The air tightness is very good, so when storing clothes, we don’t have to worry about insects crawling in, and we don’t have to worry about the clothes inside getting wet.
Inside the refrigerator, there is also a drawer. After cleaning, it can be used to store socks and other small items. With the design of the refrigerator, storing clothes is quite convenient. When you pull out the drawer, you can easily find the items. The refrigerator immediately becomes a small wardrobe.
Use it for storing books
I believe that in every household, there will be some members who love reading books, and they will need a space to store their books. If you have an unused refrigerator at home, then take advantage of it to store books. When you store books in the refrigerator, the refrigerator is equipped with a very tight design thanks to the gasket system. It will prevent moisture from entering, so the books will not become damp or moldy.
Store medication
Many families will need to have some basic medication at home to prepare for emergencies. Since it is medication, you can’t just throw it around casually as it can be very dangerous. Moreover, if you need to use medication urgently, it will take up a lot of time to search for it. Instead, when you store medication in a fixed location such as a medicine cabinet or a faulty refrigerator, it will be very convenient to retrieve when needed.
Store dishes and utensils
In addition to the above uses, we can also use the refrigerator to store some dishes and utensils. Putting clean dishes and utensils into the refrigerator will prevent them from getting dusty and keep them cleaner. This method is quite simple and practical because it is easy to implement.
