What this adds up to over time
NAHB's Study of Life Expectancy of Home Components puts a typical refrigerator's service life at 13 years; run the Frigidaire FFHT2045X* that long and it costs about $1,146 in electricity, on top of whatever it cost to buy.
Weighing a replacement
The Frigidaire FFHT2045X* 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 $88/year every year.
Compare current ENERGY STAR certified refrigerators before buying.
Protecting what you have
At $88/year just to run, a refrigerator is worth protecting against an unplanned repair bill on top of that.
