I know junk yards need to remove the doors, but I’ve also heard that individuals discarding of refrigerators need to remove them as well, and that it’s against the law to even have them outside your house without removing the doors to ward off the potential of a child climbing inside and suffocating, which has happened quite a few times, therefor someone told me they came out with this law. Is this so ? Or do the laws vary state to state. I live in NY. Thanks.

What is refrigeration?

Technically speaking, refrigeration is the process of cooling down of an enclosed space by the removal of heat from there. The removed heat is then transferred to some other place where it is unobjectionable. Cooling is the term that refers to the dissipation of heat using any natural or artificial process while the term cryogenics, on the other hand, is the process of producing extremely cold temperatures artificially.

ng carbon emissions is a complex process. The different types of emissions need to be identified and collected company wide. From this information, the amount of each type of gas released into the environment needs to be calculated. In addition, tracking methods need to show the daily use of refrigerant gas. The end result will show the global warming potential for each facility with a refrigeration and air-conditioning (RAC) system or heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system. Refrigerant systems use high levels of greenhouse gases, so the EPA established the Climate Registry Protocol for calculating carbon emissions on a regular basis. The international equivalent of this requirement is outlined in the Montreal Protocol and Kyoto Protocol. The main purpose for calculating carbon emissions is to begin reducing the damaging effects that refrigerant gas has on the environment. Commercial refrigeration and air-conditioning (RAC) systems or heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems operate on refrigerant gas, which is made up of hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and perfluorocarbons (PFCs). When broken down, these substances contain carbon, chlorine, fluorine and hydrogen. These gases are major ozone depleting substances. By calculating carbon emissions, government environmental agencies will be able to better understand the situation. Companies who fail to report their carbon emissions will be issued a substantial fine. Various carbon emissions reporting protocols have emerged from the EPA, ISO, World Resource Institute, and Climate Registry protocols. All of these documents define in great detail how organizations must collect data, calculate carbon emissions, and report the results. In short, the monitoring, tracking, and reporting requirements mandate that all locations where refrigerants are being used or serviced must collect, organize, and calculate as part of an enterprise’s carbon emissions. Some volume of carbon is released into the environment by any company with a refrigerant system. Trying to determine how much carbon is emitted is an intricate process. Calculating carbon emissions begins by collecting data across the entire company and all its locations and identifying the gases. From there, a determination on how much of each gas is released must be made. Then various reports that include tracking methods need to be completed and submitted. Refrigerant management programs can best handle the tedious process of calculating carbon emissions. With so many components involved, a computerized refrigerant management program is much more effective than manually handling and reviewing paper reports. A refrigerant management program that includes a solution for refrigerant gas tracking and an automated way to calculate carbon emissions is important. Solutions like this make is easier to handle calculating carbon emissions for all AC/HVAC systems operated by a company. There are several reasons that led to the EPA and international environmental agencies to require companies to include calculating carbon emissions in their reports. It is an important step to define your organizational boundaries, where you do business, and to identify the refrigerants you own or other sources of greenhouse gases (GHGs). Equally important is to establish a tracking mechanism for determining how much harmful gases are released at any given time. The information and data collected for the emerging refrigerant management programs will enhance and improve atmospheric conditions with specific requirements for reducing carbon (CO2) emissions. By calculating carbon emissions, companies will be able to recognize the extent of their carbon footprint. For companies with multiple locations using refrigeration and air-conditioning (RAC) systems or heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, the task becomes even more critical. But there is help to address this challenging issue. Emerging software provided by clean-tech development firms track carbon dioxide gas emissions across all sites so companies can do their part to ensure a healthy environment for years to come.

I W asked:


I am thinking about buying a Thermador freedom collection 30″ refrigerator + 18″ freezer. Since the history of this product is not very long, I couldn’t find much data about the reliability of it. Could someone who own one of this refrigerator please tell me whether there is any maintainance issue with it? I really like the look of it, but just don’t want to buy something that’ll break down often or soon. Thanks a bunch!

I was reading a few customer opinions on various sites about LG refrigerators, and most of them did not sound too good. Some people were saying that the refrigerator’s compressor failed, although LG has a 7-year warranty on it now. The people at Best Buy convinced me that they are actually some of the best refrigerators out there, so I bought one, confiding in their word. I still have second thoughts, and I was thinking about finding out more while I still have the chance to take it back. The reason why I did buy it so fast anyway was because I really need a new refrigerator, and I don’t have the money to throw away on a temporary one, so I decided to get something that seemed good.
About Stephen C’s answer: The Best Buy salesmen who sell these do not receive a commission, so no matter if the sell the fridge or not, they’re still paid the same way.
Also, the fact that LG itself will fix my refrigerator and not Best Buy is a good thing, because Best Buy probably does not have the parts or knowledge necessary to repair a fridge made by LG.
And about the thing where you said that the industry is going from a 5-year warranty to a 1-year warranty on a sealed compressor…I don’t know what you mean by that. I don’t want to sound naive, but I don’t think the salesman lied to me when saying about the warranty on the compressor. Even when asking me if I want a service plan on it when I was buying it, he said that it comes with a 7-year warranty on the compressor anyway, fact that I don’t think was in his interest necessarily because they want to get as much money out of your pocket as possible. I’m positive they wouldn’t have the courage to lie & hope to get away with it.

Ask any chef or commercial cook, and they will tell you that having the right amount of refrigerator and freezing space can make be the difference between an efficient and well-run kitchen, and a disorganized wasteful one. Unfortunately for most of us, when we open our fridge or freezer door we are confronted with a mess of poorly organized and overstocked shelves. In fact, these days our fridges and freezers have become more of a cluttered “out of mind, out of sight” storage area, rather than an important implement we use to preserve our food.

When it comes to updating your refrigerator or freezer, you need to think about a number of things. The first and most obvious consideration is the size and capacity of both. The larger the family, naturally the larger the fridge and freezer will need to be.

That said, even if you are a couple, or live alone, your lifestyle might demand you get a bigger fridge and freezer. For example, if you entertain a lot, you will soon become frustrated with a small fridge that does not accommodate food prepared for large dinner parties.

Another obvious matter will be the size of your kitchen, and what size white goods it will accommodate. A very popular option is what is known as a “fridge-freezer” which combines the two appliances in one. Fridge freezers are generally available in three widths and a range of different heights. If space is not an issue, err on the side of caution by opting for a larger capacity model. This will always ensure you have enough room if your family grows or your circumstances change.

Make sure your fridge and freezer is easy to use and maintain. For instance by buying a Frost Free freezer you ensure you will never have to defrost your freezer again. Also, look out for easy to clean shelves and compartments, preferably with glass shelves that only need a simple one-off wipe down for cleaning. Auto-Defrost fridges are also recommended since they automatically adjust the internal temperature of your fridge to avoid frosts.

Finally, always consider the environmental credentials of a particular model and brand. After all, not only is an energy efficient refrigerator and freezer better for the environment, it is also much better for your wallet since you save money in energy costs!

Find the Perfect Side by Side Fridge Freezer for Your Needs!

HTML clipboard Side by Side refrigerators are called as such because the refrigerator and the freezer are positioned next to each other — literally, side by side. These refrigerators are perfect for those kitchens where you need maximum capacity, but maybe don’t have the space for a wide door radius. HTML clipboard

Many of these units come with in-door water and ice dispensers. Be sure to look for models that have a filtered water system to get the best quality tasting water and ice. Although these features are great to have, keep in mind that they also take up a lot of interior space.

Tip: If you happen to have the need for a refrigerator with a lot of width, this model might not be for you as both the refrigerator and freezer sections are quite narrow. There are higher end models that are much wider or you might consider a French Door Refrigerator instead.

Three Key Features

There are a few key features you’ll want to look for when shopping for a Side by Side Refrigerator:

HTML clipboard

Capacity: The capacity of most side by side fridges is hampered not only by the narrowness of the compartments themselves, but also by some of the features you choose. Everything from the water dispenser to the interior light can take away from the space. Consider looking for those models that feature Split Shelving or Adjustable Shelving. Also look for those models that have Gallon Size Door Capacity so you can store your gallons of milk and juice in the door rather than utilizing all of your space on the top shelves.

Lighting: It may seem a little silly, but there were a number of models that we found that only had a top light. It made it very uncomfortable to see throughout the fridge. Always look for those models that have multiple lighting sources and especially those models that have the new and bright LED Light Bulbs.

Easy to Replace Water Filters: Even though we discussed the importance of high quality water filters above, they also must be easy to replace. Most are nowadays, but there are still a few that have you reach around the back side of the fridge to access the filter unit (none of those models are recommended here by the way). You should have an average lifespan of about six months on most refrigerator water filters.
