Fridge Tips to Keep Your Thanksgiving Leftovers Fresh

Thanksgiving is a time for family, fun, and feasting. But when the feast is done, keeping your leftovers fresh becomes the next task. At T&C Appliance/HVAC Repair in Burlington, we're here to share fridge tips to keep your Thanksgiving leftovers fresh & ensure your refrigerator is up to the challenge. Here's how to maintain the ideal fridge temperature for your Thanksgiving leftovers.


Check Your Fridge's Temperature Settings

Ensure your fridge is set at or below 40°F (4°C) and your freezer at 0°F (-18°C). This stops bacteria in its tracks and keeps your food safe. It's smart to use a separate fridge thermometer to check these settings for accuracy.


Inspect and Replace Door Seals if Needed

Damaged door seals might let cold air slip out, making your fridge work harder and potentially shortening its lifespan. Test the seal by closing the door on a dollar bill; if it pulls out easily, it might be time to replace the seal.


Organize for Optimal Air Flow

Keep your fridge uncluttered to allow air to circulate around leftovers, which helps maintain consistent temperatures throughout. Store food in covered containers to keep it fresh and prevent smells from mingling.


Clean the Condenser Coils

Keep your fridge running efficiently by cleaning the condenser coils twice a year. Simply unplug the fridge, and clean the coils with a coil brush or a vacuum.


Adjust Humidity Controls

Utilize the humidity drawers correctly—high for vegetables and low for fruits—to keep produce fresh longer, enhancing the overall condition inside your fridge.
