Which system is better for a refrigerator freezer?

In dry freezers with the popular No Frost function, the defrosting process starts automatically. Thanks to the built-in evaporator and fans, cold flows are evenly distributed among the compartments, and condensation does not accumulate on the walls of the chamber. When the compressor is turned off, the frost evaporates, thawing under the action of the heater (heater).

Is No Frost necessary in the freezer? Yes, this is a more convenient and comfortable option for the owner, which involves minimal effort and time spent on servicing the equipment. Defrosting the unit is required once every 6-12 months, and only for preventive purposes.

Models of manual defrosting freezers, which are cheaper compared to No Frost, waste a lot of electricity when ice forms. Ice freezing inside the chamber requires more electricity to maintain the temperature set in the chamber. It also reduces cooling efficiency, making it difficult to exchange cold between the evaporator and the chamber. This freezer needs defrosting at least once every 3-4 months.

Characteristics

• total volume: 388 l
• Energy class: A++
• number of compressors: one
• No Frost
• freezing capacity: 15 kg/day
• Possibility of reversing doors: yes

The fifth step of the TOP is occupied by Bosch KGN39AI32R. In appearance, dimensions, location of cameras and their volume, it is similar to the previous rating model. An important feature is the ability to install close to cabinets, tables, or in the corner of the room due to the PerfectFit technology , which allows the doors to swing open 90° without the need for additional space. And at the same time, all drawers and shelves slide out freely. In terms of the internal arrangement of space, Bosch is also similar to LG : 3 drawers in the freezer, 4 trays on the refrigerator door (one with a lid), 4 shelves, one of which is foldable, a wine shelf for 4 bottles.

The freshness area is interestingly presented: two smaller drawers and one large one with an internal partition. VitaFresh plus technology ensures long-term preservation of the freshness of vegetables and fruits. And Multi Airflow is responsible for the uniform distribution of cold throughout the chamber. Due to circulation, the same level of temperature and humidity is maintained in any zone . To control the settings, a display with control buttons is placed on the front surface of the door. You can choose either an economical operating mode, super cooling or super freezing when fully loaded.

Control is also possible via the Home Connect app. It also receives a message about an unlocked door. This is also signaled by sound. The reliable Bosch compressor ensures long service life, economical and quiet operation. The models are similar in these indicators. The backlight lamps are located in an original way - on the sides of the shelves , which ensures uniform and bright lighting at all levels.

Pros:

• High quality build.
• Large capacity.
• Possibility of installation in a corner or close to furniture.
• Convenient folding shelf. Good organization of internal space.
• Excellent lighting illuminates all shelves.
• Quiet operation.

Minuses:

• The display shows the set temperature, not the one inside the refrigerator.
• In my subjective opinion, the folding shelf has a more convenient design and is stronger than LG's.

Price - from 70,000 rubles . Bosch is in many ways similar to LG DoorCooling: large internal volume, technologies responsible for uniform distribution of cold, display, and the ability to control from a smartphone. It is slightly inferior in terms of internal arrangement and functionality - only 4 bottles can be placed on the wine shelf; you cannot select a mode for vegetable drawers. And the design is more concise. But Bosch is superior in convenient, uniform illumination due to a different arrangement of lamps and greater freezing power (up to 15 kg per day). 95% of users recommend it for purchase.

In fourth place is Biryusa SBS 587 I. This model is Side by Side - the freezer is located on the side of the refrigerator. It has a much larger capacity compared to the refrigerators described above - 335 and 175 liters . Accordingly, it is also larger in size (width - 89.5 cm). Each chamber has two drawers at the bottom, 4 shelves and 5 baskets on the doors. Also, both cameras have backlight lamps on the top panel .

In terms of freezing power, Biryusa is slightly inferior - 10 kg per day . The design is quite interesting: there is an offset black stripe running down the center, visually equalizing the width of the cameras. It hides quite convenient built-in handles. It also has a display with a control panel at eye level . On the panel you can change the mode, for example, vacation or cooling/freezing when fully loaded, and also block the buttons from accidental switching. Biryusa stands out for its slightly higher noise level (43 dB) and high energy consumption, which is why it belongs to class A+.

Pros:

• Huge capacity.
• Large freezer with lighting.
• Holds the set temperature well.
• Convenient control panel and display.
• Low cost for a Side by Side refrigerator.
• It works quite quietly.

Minuses:

• There are complaints about the quality: the plastic of the trays is thin, the back wall is barely screwed on.
• The bottom drawer is shallower in depth (due to the motor located there).
• When opening the doors, it beeps (the function is intrusive, annoying, according to user reviews).

Price - about 45,000 rubles . In comparison with Bosch and LG, DoorCooling is inferior in the absence of special technologies for uniform distribution of cold, slightly lower performance, and higher noise levels. It also does not have folding shelves or wine compartments. But don’t forget that this is a budget Side-by-Side refrigerator , so you shouldn’t expect anything special from it.

Due to the lateral arrangement of the chambers, the total capacity of the refrigerator is larger, and the shelves are installed at a greater distance from each other. This allows you to place taller dishes in it. 98% of users recommend it for purchase.

What is a drip system

In a drip system, the evaporator is hidden behind the solid rear wall of the chamber. Condensation does not fall on it, so no ice forms on the heat exchanger. Ice can accumulate on the chamber walls, floor and ceiling.

Over time, the freezer freezes and requires defrosting. Freezers with a drip system do not cool food as quickly, efficiently and evenly as with No Frost. But compared to them they have a number of advantages.

• A simple and effective drip defrosting system for Direct Cool refrigeration equipment has a simple design, the operating principle of which is based on the accumulation and removal of condensate.
• A special panel silently removes accumulated moisture into designated tanks. The built-in control mode regulates the operation of the system.
• Defrosting occurs automatically: the presence of an evaporator behind the device eliminates manual, labor-intensive defrosting. The evaporator maintains a certain temperature by cooling the air flow. Condensation forms on the surface and hardens. If there is a large layer of ice in the refrigerator, the compressor automatically turns off.
• Consumers consider the advantages of such a system to be the low cost of the refrigerator (15-19 thousand rubles), its comfortable operation, minimal noise level, and economical energy consumption. Among the disadvantages are the need to defrost the freezer, periodic blockages of the drainage and outlet hose.
• The most popular refrigerators with drip defrosting are the Shivaki SHRF-90DP, Indesit SB 185 and Pozis RK 139 models.

What is No Frost and Total No Frost

In freezers with the No Frost system, food is cooled faster than in conventional ones. They have one or more holes on the back panel through which cooled air from the evaporator enters the chamber. It is forcibly pumped by fans located behind the rear wall.

Due to the blowing, cold air is distributed evenly throughout the entire volume of the freezer. In this case, ice formation on the evaporator heat exchanger is inevitable. To avoid this, heating elements and heating elements are installed in it. They turn on periodically, heating the evaporator and melting the ice. Thanks to this, No Frost systems do not require defrosting and operation in the reverse cycle.

• Literally, the name of the No Frost technology is translated as “no frost.” The owner of the unit is deprived of the problem of unsightly snow accumulations and the need to periodically remove snow and ice on his own.
• Dry freezing does not require an evaporator. The advantages of the technology are minimal effort required for maintenance, no condensation, uniform temperature inside thanks to fans that circulate air flow. There is also a convenient quick freezing option.
• Consumers consider the disadvantages of such equipment to be the high price of products and insufficient ergonomics of the internal space, noise during operation and high energy consumption.
• The Total No Frost system is notable for the fact that, thanks to a powerful motor, an ergonomic evaporator, a fan and an air purification unit, mold does not form on food in the refrigerator, and there is no unpleasant odor in the chambers. The technology is more advanced than No Frost, but requires mandatory protection of open containers with lids or film to prevent the products from drying out.
• The Frost Free system combines the above characteristics of refrigerators. The Full No Frost system involves air circulation between the freezer and refrigerator compartment due to the directional movement of air flows.

Airflow holes in the freezer compartment with No Frost in the refrigerator.
Among the budget solutions with the No Frost function are units from the brands Philco, Delfa, Beko; refrigeration equipment from the brands Atlant, Hitachi, Samsung, Gorenje, LG are quite affordable in price. Inexpensive lines from these manufacturers can be found at prices up to 50 thousand rubles. Elite models from the brands LG, Bosch, Liebherr, Samsung are presented with improved models with impeccable build quality, the maximum number of functions and stylish design. The price category includes options from 45 to 95 thousand rubles.

Such units have an energy consumption class from A + to A +++: the equipment guarantees energy savings, which will have a positive impact on the family budget.
