How long can the home chest freezer last?

　　On average, the life expectancy of a refrigerator freezer or chest freezer is 16 years. The service life of a home chest freezer is usually 12 to 20 years. In addition to gas and electric stoves, freezers are often the kitchen appliances that have been used for the longest time.

　　But this is not a guarantee! Many factors affect the life of the home chest freezer, including maintenance and environmental factors. If you know the proper maintenance method of the freezer, you can ensure that it stays cool for a long time.

　　We provide maintenance tips below, as well as more important details about the life of the freezer.

　　Estimate the life expectancy of a refrigerator or home chest freezer

　　If the average lifespan of a home chest freezer is 16 years, what about the freezer in your home? Is your refrigerator one of the "normal" refrigerators, or will it break earlier than most refrigerators?

　　It usually depends on the following factors:

　　Quality: The service life of high-end or luxury freezer models is usually longer than that of freezers without top-level parts. In addition, the lifespan of a mini-freezer may not be as long as a full-size household freezer or refrigerator-freezer.

　　Maintenance: The 16-year average lifespan of the freezer compartment only applies to properly maintain freezer compartments. (We provide you with some maintenance tips below!)

　　Repair: Some home appliance repair services use after-sales parts or take other "shortcuts", and these "shortcuts" cannot solve the freezer problem in the long term. The simplest solution? Hire your local Mr. Electric!

　　Usage: If used improperly, the refrigerator will wear out faster. Remove obstructions from the freezer vents, keep them between 0 and 5 degrees Fahrenheit, and avoid filling the equipment.

　　Environment: If you have a freezer in your garage, outdoors, or even next to a sunny window, the service life of your equipment is more likely to be shortened. Please put the refrigerator under extreme temperature and humidity.
