Cost over its typical lifespan

13 years is NAHB's typical service life for this category; at $121/year, the Frigidaire FFHN2740PA adds up to about $1,569 in electricity over that span.

Weighing a replacement

The Frigidaire FFHN2740PA runs above its category average. If the refrigerator you actually own is older still, likely well past ENERGY STAR's efficiency baseline when it was made, a current certified model could cost meaningfully less than this model's $121/year every year.

Protecting what you have

The Frigidaire FFHN2740PA already costs $121/year to run; a repair bill on top of that is the kind of expense a protection plan exists to smooth out.
