Hi all.
I am thinking about upgrading my fridge.
The one I have is a standard freezer on top style with built in ice maker. But it is probably original to the house, thus 15 years old. The house is an average spec-built house, and the appliances are likewise thus average grade.
I have read that upgrading old appliances could save on electricity. My electric costs are about 10 cents per kWh.
I'd probably replace it with just a newer model of the same style.
Any idea on what the payback period could be?
Any idea on what to do with the old one? I don't like the idea of sending it to the landfill even if that's part of the deal with the new one ("Buy ours and we'll haul away your old one for free!").
Places to buy it from? Tips/tricks for a good deal?
Any other thoughts?
Thanks!
