The health of a refrigerator matters to keep the appliance ready for daily use. This is not only about electricity but also the condition of food. Proper temperature placement on the correct shelf helps extend the life of the unit and preserve freshness longer.
You may have questions about whether the appliance is operating as it should. Some issues are subtle but important. Frost on walls, food spoiling early, or heavy condensation can signal that something needs attention.
For example, what happens to the drops forming at the bottom? Are they a bad sign? Do you need a technician? The answer is no. Those droplets result from opening and closing the door. Cold air is replaced by warmer currents from outside. You will notice a small drain hole at the bottom where those drips flow out, so keeping it clean and free of blockages is important.
Although it may seem tedious, it’s wise to move the refrigerator occasionally and inspect the back. This is a good time to clean the water collection tray. Most droplets evaporate, but some residue may remain. If the refrigerator emits an unpleasant smell after milk or liquid spills, that is usually because this area isn’t clean enough.

There is also a practical drawer for vegetables. Its purpose is clear: vegetables stay fresher when stored lower in the refrigerator, where humidity and airflow are better suited for their preservation.
