Different Types of Refrigeration Systems
There are many different types of refrigeration systems on the market, and the more you understand about these systems, the more likely you are to make a well-educated and informed choice when it comes to servicing or purchasing a new system. Depending on your style of living and your accessibility needs, you’ll most likely want a certain type of refrigeration system.
Top Mount Refrigerator
The top mount refrigerator is the classic and most common type of refrigerator today; the freezer is at eye level and the fresh food compartment is located at the bottom of the unit. You can find this type of refrigerator in a variety of different colors and sizes, making it the most flexible type of refrigerator you can purchase. You’ll undoubtedly be able to find one that fits the dimensions of your home, as well as your kitchen decor.
Side-by-Side Refrigerator
The side-by-side has a refrigerator and a freezer that run from the top to the bottom of the unit. Side-by-side units are notably easier to use for children and people in wheelchairs, because there is equal access to both the freezer and refrigerator. The doors also require less space to open and close, making it more convenient to use in small kitchens. These refrigerators also come with customizable and adjustable bins on the doors.
Bottom-Mount Refrigerator
If you like having your fresh food at eye level, then you may want to purchase a bottom-mount refrigerator. These models feature a freezer on the bottom. Since most people use the refrigerator more than the freezer, the fact that you must bend over to access the freezer is usually not a concern. However, these refrigerators are very difficult to access from a sitting position or from below since you must lift packages up, making it less child- and wheelchair-accessible.
French Door Refrigerator
This modern design is becoming increasingly popular today, combining a bottom-mount freezer with a side by side refrigerator on top. This style combines all of the positive features of bottom-mount and side-by-side refrigerators.
