Brilio.net - Loose refrigerator door rubber can be a problem that has a significant impact on the performance and efficiency of the refrigerator. This condition causes the temperature inside the refrigerator to be unstable, so that food spoils faster. In addition, this also causes the refrigerator to work harder to maintain a cold temperature, which ultimately increases electricity consumption.

Loose refrigerator door rubber problems are often caused by wear or aging of the material. Over time, the rubber can become stiff or lose its elasticity, making it unable to close properly. Dirty rubber or sharp objects can also cause damage that reduces its ability to maintain airtightness. Therefore, it is important to regularly check and maintain the refrigerator door rubber to keep it in good condition.

Fixing loose refrigerator door rubber is actually not too difficult and can be done at home. One simple way is to clean the rubber from dirt and dust. When cleaning, most people usually remove the rubber from the refrigerator door to make it easier to clean.

But it should be noted that dismantling the refrigerator door rubber is also quite complicated and troublesome. Not without reason, when dismantled, the refrigerator door rubber must be reinstalled properly so that there is no leakage. This will certainly be a challenge if you are not used to dismantling and reinstalling refrigerator door rubber.

To make it more practical, you can apply the trick shared by Instagram user @marlinadharma. Through one of the videos uploaded, she admitted to only washing it easily using two kitchen ingredients.
