Comment on Increasing the efficiency of (some) refrigerators with insulating foam, potentially cutting yearly energy use in half

Holy shit this is some #theydidthemath stuff.

6 months at paying full price for the foam is a ridiculously quick turnaround given the lifespan of a fridge (easily 5 years). Plus, you can probably reuse the prior fridge’s foam on the next fridge, so that makes it even better.

Why don’t people do this more often? If the gap in my current “fridge space” wasn’t so small already, I’d be tempted to go find some foam.
