The chest freezer is one of the most energy efficient freezers. Its airtight seal helps conserve cold air, which saves energy and reduces costs for utilities. Single-door freezers, on the other side, are more likely to leak air which causes their compressors to work harder to keep the temperature constant. Many chest freezers also have low-frost technology, which reduces the frequency of defrosting and reduces energy consumption even more.

Both upright and chest freezers require maintenance to ensure they are functioning as they should. If you choose one that has manual defrost, it's going to require frequent cleaning of ice to prevent the appliance from freezing over. Upright freezers, on the contrary, are typically self-defrosting. They also have fewer parts that require maintenance over time.

To allow adequate ventilation, freezers must be at least six inches from other appliances or walls. They also need to have a minimum of an inch behind them to ensure that they can be swept and cleaned should they be required. All freezers must be inspected regularly to ensure that the seal on the door is not damaged and doesn't show signs of wear and tear.

It's also an excellent idea to regularly clean the freezer's condenser coils and cooling fan. This will help prevent dust and pet hair as well as lint accumulation on the freezer, which may cause it to work harder. Make sure to unplug the freezer prior to cleaning it and always use a bristle brush with a long handle and a vacuum cleaner that is compatible with freezers. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasives and household cleaners that could harm the freezer's interior. Before performing any maintenance on a freezer, make sure you read the manufacturer's instructions.
