SunFrost RF19 freezer performance [RE-wrenches]

[Bob Galbreath]

Here's a semi-related, embarrassing, but perhaps educational, anecdote for you.

This weekend I found a Brand meter which I lost almost a year ago. I, 
of course, found it just where I had left it; behind my home 
refrigerator, diligently recording the kw's these last 12 months.

The anecdotal result: The Energy Star label on the unit predicted it 
would use 696 kwh in a year. The Brand meter is showing 172.1 kwh for 
355 days of operation which puts it just a little higher than the 
predicted performance of a Sun-Frost.

This is a 10-year old KitchenAid 15 cu. ft., frost-free, 
refrigerator-only unit in a two-person, no-kids household in Southern 
CA. Not a main-stream unit by any means but still interesting results 
I think.
