Rating of the best refrigerators with the NO FROST system for 2022

Gone are the days when hard-earned food was stored in cellars and cellars. Cucumbers, for example, were placed in a clay pot, sprinkled with sand, after which the pot should be buried in the ground. Civilization has simplified life, and high technology has reached an extraordinary level - from pot-bellied ZILs to trendy LGs with a bar and control from a smartphone.

Scientists, inventors have done a lot of work, the functions of modern refrigeration units amaze the imagination of the inhabitants, refrigerators with the No Frost system are especially interesting.

No Frost system - no frost

Cooling of the freezing and refrigerating chambers is not done by drip, but by using the latest technology. The bottom line is a system of forced circulation of cold air currents, which eliminates the formation of zones of sharp temperature changes and blocks the growth of ice on the walls.

The No Frost effect guarantees the protection of products from freezing.

How it works

1. An evaporator is located between the rear wall and the housing or under the refrigerator compartment.
2. Fans are used to blow through the evaporator and force air into the chambers through channels. The result is constantly circulating cold air.
3. Moisture does not settle on the walls, frost settles on the evaporator, the coldest zone.
4. When the compressor is permanently switched off, the air is heated, which removes frost.
5. Drops of moisture formed during evaporation flow down the troughs into the accumulator, where they evaporate.

• quick recovery of the temperature regime after opening and closing the refrigerator;
• due to the function of instant freezing and cooling, the temperature treatment of products takes place in a record short time;
• a slow cycle of bacteria reproduction due to low humidity inside the chamber;
• no need for manual defrosting.

• the need to store products in airtight containers, as they dry out quickly.

Criteria for choosing a No Frost refrigerator

The variety of refrigerators can be conditionally divided not only by technical characteristics, dimensions, but also by the usable place of the refrigeration and freezer compartments.

Camera types

1. height 80-160 cm, width 50 cm, depth 60 cm, usable volume not more than 60 liters;
2. mini-bar 80 cm high, volume 60 liters, mainly used for storing fruits and cooling drinks;
3. European standard - height 173-205 cm, with a volume of 50-140 liters for small kitchens;
4. parameters - height 170 cm, volume 200 liters dash 260 correspond to medium-sized refrigerators;
5. large refrigerators are considered 750-850 liters of usable volume for spacious kitchens.

cooling chamber

Depending on the mode of operation of the refrigerator, you should choose the volume of the chamber.

The design of the camera is divided into the following types:

• short-term storage of products within 4 days;
• long-term storage is possible with preliminary freezing of food;
• freezing and cooling are possible for all types of products;
• Shock freezing occurs within 60-90 minutes.

How to choose the right No Frost refrigerator

First of all, you should decide on the volume of a separate refrigerating chamber. If the family freezes more meat, vegetables, poultry for long periods, then the largest possible volume of the freezer should be chosen.

In the case of using food products, fresh, dairy, which do not require long-term storage in frozen form, you can opt for a unit with a superior volume of the refrigerating chamber.

Next, you should decide on the energy consumption that is acceptable for the seed budget, and the ability to maintain the set temperature offline.

Power and noise are the next options to choose from.

The climate compliance class is divided according to the following characteristics:

• N - dry rooms;
• SN for temperatures 10-32°, suitable for use in the basement, in the country;
• ST for temperatures 12-38 ° - hot, tropical climate;
• T - arid regions with temperatures of 28-43 °.

The potential of the unit to cool products to a given temperature and keep them unchanged.

• 1 degree - 6 ° and the maintenance period is a week;
• 2 degree - 12 ° with a period of 30 days;
• 3 degree - 18 ° and a period of 90 days;
• 4 degree - 18 ° with a period of 180 to 360 days.

In conclusion, one or another brand with relevant characteristics is considered.

If there are several options, then select additional functions, such as:

• door opening indicators;
• temperature sensors;
• display;
• shock freezing;
• shock cooling;
• freshness zone;
• ice generator;
• radio.

If the cost is within the buyer's power - you can take it.

Warranty periods for different units vary - this can be an important criterion.
