Buying a Refrigerator in 2025?

by | Mar 28, 2025 | News

Here’s What Smart Shoppers Always Ask (That Most People Forget)

A refrigerator is one of the hardest-working appliances in your home—yet most people buy one based only on looks or brand.

At Emcor, we’ve helped thousands of Filipino families, business owners, and condo-dwellers pick the right refrigerator for their needs—not just for today, but for the next 10+ years.

Whether you need something budget-friendly, energy-efficient, or big enough for bulk groceries, this guide will help you make a confident, regret-free choice.

Step 1: Know How Much Space You Really Have

Measure everything before browsing:

  • 🟢 Width, height, and depth of your fridge space
  • 🟢 Clearance for door swing
  • 🟢 Entryways and hallways (for delivery!)

📏 Pro Tip: Leave at least 2 inches of ventilation space on the sides and top for proper airflow. Overheating shortens your fridge’s life.

Step 2: Choose the Right Refrigerator Type

Type Best For Why Choose It
Single Door Condos, dorms, tight budgets Compact, affordable
Top Freezer Small families, everyday use Classic, reliable
Bottom Freezer Easy access to fridge items Less bending, stylish
Side-by-Side Big families, businesses Large capacity, organized storage
French Door Modern homes, premium experience Wide shelves, sleek design
Mini Fridge Bedrooms, offices, hotel rooms Space-saving, secondary use
Showcase Chiller Sari-sari stores, food businesses Product visibility, easy access

🏠 Buying for home? Top or bottom freezer is ideal.
🏪 Buying for business? Showcase or side-by-side fits best.

Step 3: Check the Energy Label—This One’s Big

Electricity costs don’t lie. An inefficient fridge can quietly drain thousands of pesos per year.

Here’s what to look for:

  • Inverter technology: Adjusts cooling automatically = major savings
  • Energy Efficiency Factor (EEF): Higher = better efficiency
  • Yellow energy label: Required in PH—always check it!

💸 With an inverter fridge, many Emcor customers save ₱5,000–₱10,000+ annually on electricity.

Step 4: Think About Interior Features That Matter

Not all shelves and drawers are created equal. Choose based on your real habits:

  • Adjustable shelves = more space for party trays, lechon, etc.
  • Separate veggie/fruit crisper = keeps produce fresher
  • LED lighting = brighter, cooler, more efficient
  • Anti-bacterial coating = better hygiene for families
  • Fast freeze zones = perfect for bulk meat or ice cream

👀 Tip: Check the freezer-to-fridge ratio—if you store more meat, go for larger freezer space.

Step 5: Where You Buy It Really Matters

Don’t risk:

  • ❌ Missing parts
  • ❌ No warranty support
  • ❌ Poor delivery and no installation help

When you buy your refrigerator from Emcor, you get:

✅ Flexible payment plans
✅ Free delivery (selected areas)
✅ Installation guidance
✅ Support even after the sale

📦 You’re not just buying a fridge—you’re buying service, protection, and peace of mind.
