A dangerous method drives the masters mad: Never use this to melt the ice in the refrigerator

The article discusses common issues with refrigerators during heatwaves in Bosnia and Herzegovina, where frequent door openings lead to ice buildup inside freezers. This ice layer reduces efficiency, increases energy consumption, and shortens the lifespan of the compressor. The article explains that professional brands like Bosch and LG recommend using a container with warm water to melt ice quickly, but warn against placing hot containers directly on plastic shelves to avoid damage. It highlights dangerous practices such as using sharp tools or hair dryers, which can cause permanent damage to the appliance. The piece advises proper methods, including turning off the appliance, removing food, placing the warm water container on a cloth, and closing the doors after some time.
