Save Energy By Sealing Your Refrigerator Door

BALTIMORE (WJZ) - Your refrigerator is the biggest user of energy in your home.

Mary Bubala reports that if the seal isn't airtight, you're wasting energy and money because your refrigerator is the biggest user of energy in your home.

Test the seals by closing the door over a piece of paper or a dollar bill, so it's right in the middle. If you can pull the paper or bill out easily, the seal needs to be replaced.
