2.Pay attention to safety time limit: The tilting time of the refrigerator should be <30 minutes to avoid backflow of compressor lubricating oil.
3.New alternatives: Consider purchasing a bottom cooling model (no need to leave space on both sides) or an ultra-thin embedded design
5. Netizens’ actual testing experience
Xiaohongshu user @DecorationXiaobai records: The 85cm wide refrigerator was successfully moved into the 79cm door frame by removing the refrigerator top cover (not the door body), but please note: ① Prepare the sealing tape in advance ② After reinstallation, let it sit for 24 hours before turning on the power
Douyin Master@Home Appliance Veteran reminds: Some Japanese refrigerators use special hinge designs (such as Toshiba Chi-flavor series), which may affect the sealing after disassembly. It is recommended to consult after-sales service first.
6. Preventive measures
1. Use the AR measuring ruler function before purchasing (supported by JD.com/Tmall APP)
2. Require merchants to provide "all-in-one delivery and installation" service (Suning.com promises a full refund if you do not log in)
3. When renovating an old house, consider changing the door cover to a detachable design.
It can be seen from the above structured data analysis that solving the problem of adding refrigerators to households requires a combination of specific household conditions and product characteristics. It is recommended that consumers take full measurements before purchasing and give priority to brands that provide professional delivery and installation services to avoid unnecessary losses and troubles.
