[QUOTE="condor22, post: 592679, member: 1932"] Back to the insulation, there are two schools of thought re insulated covers, some swear by them, others say they make no difference. There is a however a 3rd factor; Some covers tend to reduce the airflow around the compressor vents, which can also happen depending where the fridge is installed even without a cover. This affects compressor efficiency. How effective a fridge is, disregarding compressor, how often opened etc, largely depends on it holding the set temperature and the point at which the compressor cycles on and off. It is logical to assume that if the insulation in the cabinet is not the best, it will reach its switch on temp more often. I would then also assume by adding external insulation it would have a similar effect. So, I'm in the swear by group, notwithstanding the outside of my 28 year old fridge is as good as it was when bought. [/QUOTE]
