Tips for choosing
The following recommendations will help you make the right choice:
The packaging containing the refrigerator cleaner must be labeled to neutralize the odor.- In some cases, it is more convenient to use not liquid detergents, but absorbers that are installed inside the refrigerator. This is a convenient option if you are addicted to cooking aromatic dishes or when there are frequent power outages.
- If the task is only to eliminate odor, then odor absorbers can be used. But if full care is required, you will need a drug that is applied to the surface and requires the use of a sponge.
- If the refrigerator stays with food for a long time, for example, during frequent business trips of apartment residents, a portable air ionizer can be a good option.
- Many detergents are perfumed. Usually, this information is on the label on the front side. This allows you to choose the scent you like.
