Probably, it is difficult to imagine the life of a modern person without such an object of everyday comfort as a refrigerator. For a long time, people used cellars or glaciers for such purposes, in which, by the way, food could be stored quite well and for a long time. Today, you do not have to bother building special premises for storing food, it is enough to choose the best and most suitable model of such a refrigeration unit. From the article we will learn about the best models of refrigerators in 2024 from ATLANT.

Before the creation of these units, people came up with different methods and tricks for storing food, since in Russia the first units appeared only in 1901.
The products were salted, marinated, dried, in general, they came up with a lot of secrets for the preservation of the freshness of products. For example, parchment, in which the product was wrapped and hung in a place where there are drafts, helped to save meat and sausage. Also, the meat was shifted with nettles or grated horseradish, wrapped in a cloth soaked in vinegar.
In order to preserve the freshness of the eggs for a long time, they were greased with fat or protein, and laid out in such a way that they would not touch each other. Such a perishable product was often stored in sawdust.
In those distant times, in every courtyard, of course, there were cellars that had an impressive depth. Inside it was laid out with a stone, and the entrance was covered with an airtight lid, thanks to which it was possible to maintain a low temperature and humidity. To improve the "refrigeration" effect, large blocks of ice were lowered into the cellars, which were laid in the spring. This made it possible to preserve food in the summer, since the ice melted slowly, and the low temperature in it was still maintained until the onset of cold weather.
The idea to create the first refrigerator belongs to Thomas Moore. The entrepreneur was engaged in the supply of butter and was worried about the quality and its safety. To begin with, he came up with a special container made of sheets of metal, which he carefully insulated with rabbit skins. After that, the container was inserted into a cedar barrel with ice, he called his invention - a refrigerator.
After a while, the doctor John Gorey was able to obtain artificial ice using the compression cycle technology, so the first compression refrigerator appeared, and the technology is still used in modern devices.
The technological process did not stand still, refrigeration chambers began to appear, which were so necessary at industrial facilities engaged in meat processing or brewing beer.
The production of the first refrigerators in the post-Soviet space began in 1937, while the serial production of units started in 1939 at a tractor plant located in the city of Kharkov.
In the post-war period, the ZIS automobile plant was engaged in the production of refrigerators, which began to produce high-quality and durable refrigerators with the name "Moscow".
Modern models differ from those that were produced, they do not use ammonia sulfur dioxide and sulfur dioxide, which is replaced by other refrigerants, effective and less safe.
The answer is simple, it is, of course, the preservation and cooling of food and drinks. In a hermetically sealed and refrigerated space, bacteria do not develop, which can arise during the process of food spoilage.
There are refrigerant pipes inside the walls of the unit to produce evaporation. Thanks to them, the process of heat generation and its accumulation inside the device slows down, and low temperatures remain.
The complex structure of the unit does not imply the possibility of repairing it. Sometimes, the cost of repair work is cheaper than buying a new household appliance.
So, the reasons for the malfunction can be:
By studying and understanding the principle of the refrigerator, the consumer will be able to navigate the market for this group of goods. Modern refrigerator models are environmentally friendly, clean and economical. Household appliances from ATLANT meet all requirements and standards, comply with the “Price - Quality” rule, and a wide range of refrigerator models will allow you to choose the right one.
Household appliances of this Belarusian manufacturer have been pleasing the consumer for several decades with the quality of their products, which reliably and honestly serve customers.
The company is mainly engaged in the production of refrigerators and freezers. The history of the company originates from the Minsk plant, when the Minsk refrigerator was released.
The ATLANT firm is famous and known not only in the vastness of its country, but also far beyond its borders. The products can be found in stores in Russia and Ukraine, as well as in neighboring countries.
Goods such as freezers, refrigerators, washing machines and kettles have long been seen in many homes.
The principles of the company are customer satisfaction, high quality and the creation of the latest technological processes.
The ATLANT plant is a holder of a certificate of compliance with the international standard ISO 9001 in several areas: design, production, service. After a while, the certificate was successfully confirmed and supplemented by the production of washing machines.
Today, more than 60 models of refrigerators are produced from the assembly line of the plant. These are single-chamber and double-chamber models, mini-refrigerators, built-in, as well as freezers and commercial refrigerated display cases. All models differ in shape and volume, functions and design, but we can confidently say that they are all energy efficient and affordable.
We decided to update the refrigerator, decide on the dimensions of this necessary item in everyday life. Determine a place for it, take into account the distance for opening the refrigerator door so that there are no obstacles nearby. Although in modern models of refrigerators, the doors can be outweighed.
Before choosing and buying a unit, consider not only its dimensions, but also the dimensions of the doorways, otherwise you may be faced with the fact that they will become an obstacle on the way of the refrigerator to the chosen place. And, of course, the selected refrigerator model should correspond to the number of people living together.
Aggregates are subdivided into:
Compact, not very high unit from 85 to 160 cm, the width of the models is about 55 cm, and the depth is 60 cm. Such refrigerators have one chamber, often located on top. Such a model is suitable for a small family or in the case when the kitchen is small.
Two-compartment refrigerators have two separate compartments and can be of different sizes. In such models, one chamber is a refrigerator, the second is a freezer. This model is popular and in demand, it is comfortable and every consumer will be able to choose a suitable device.
Models of three-compartment refrigerators have an additional chamber (zone of additional freshness), in which the temperature is maintained from 0-2 C, in which food can be stored without freezing them. Food will stay fresh while retaining its flavor and aroma.
Side-by-Side models are large enough and the freezer in them is large, located on the side of the unit. It can store a large amount of food (berries, vegetables, herbs, meat). The average height of the units is 180 cm, and the width is 1 m.
By the type of defrosting, the units are divided into:
It makes no sense to describe in detail the manual type of defrosting, everything is clear here.
The drip defrosting system is convenient and simple, you do not have to waste time on the procedure. The cooling element is located at the rear of the unit. In the event that the compressor stops and the ice melts, the water flows into a special hole. Then into the tank located on the compressor, and then evaporation occurs under the influence of the radiated heat and the refrigerator is defrosting.
The No Frost defrosting system is translated from English as “no frost”. The devices are airtight, uniform circulation of cold air occurs thanks to the fans, thus there are no sudden changes in temperature. Thanks to this, frost and icing does not appear on the refrigerator wall, and the food remains fresh and tasty.
Models of modern refrigerators are high-tech and have wide functions. Such useful and convenient functions include sound and light signals that notify that the refrigerator door is not closed, the power supply is turned off, or the temperature in the chamber is increased. Some refrigerators have an LED indication function or are equipped with a digital display that displays the status of the system. Speaking about the usefulness of the functions, we can say that they are needed to save power.
You should take care of such a necessary household appliance in the house already during transportation from the store to the doorstep of the house or apartment. It is not in vain that the manufacturer indicates in large letters "Do not quit" or "Do not turn over". This rule is especially important for these household appliances. The unit must be transported in an upright position. It is not recommended to tilt it more than 40 degrees. These requirements were invented for a reason. When tilting, there is a possibility of oil leakage from the compressor, and then it is possible that it will enter the refrigerant circuit. When the device is turned on, the oil is transported further. As a result, the capillary becomes clogged, and there will be extra financial costs for carrying out repair work.
Situations may arise where vertical transport is not possible. When transporting the refrigerator horizontally, follow a few tips:
Having delivered the device home, it is necessary to take care of it further.
When choosing a location, consider the proximity of radiators, heaters, gas or electric stoves. Direct sunlight also damages the household appliance and significantly shortens its life. Air must get to the refrigerator and it is very good if there is a small draft.
In modern apartments or private houses, heated floors are installed to improve living conditions and increase the level of comfort. This factor must also be taken into account. When designing floors, it is necessary to distribute the heating area in such a way as to leave room for the refrigerator.
Otherwise, the device, which will be constantly used with the heated floors turned on, will quickly fail, since the compressor of the device will be forced to work continuously, so to speak for wear and tear.
After transporting the device and installing it, do not rush to turn it on. Give it time, wash the unit and after two hours, you can turn it on without loading food. To begin with, the refrigerator must reach the required low temperature and "cool down".
It is important to keep all household appliances clean and the refrigerator, too. It is necessary to carry out sanitary work only in the off mode of the device, freeing it from the contents. Outside can be wiped clean with a damp flannel cloth.
Important! It is not recommended to use solvents or abrasive cleaning agents!
The parts of the refrigerator made of stainless steel should be wiped down exclusively with products suitable for this type of coating.
Then we proceed to the "internal cleaning". We wipe the inner surfaces with a moistened cloth in a disinfectant solution, do not forget about the rubber seal.
When carrying out wet cleaning, it is important to ensure that no water gets into the compartment of the temperature switch. When finished cleaning, wipe the inside and outside of the unit dry.
Important! Clean the back of the refrigerator at least once a year. A large amount of dust accumulates there, and you can remove it with a vacuum cleaner.
