A 14 yr old frige is not high efficiency, in fact it is only 25% as
efficient as new friges that were mandated by gov standards that took
effect in 2000 and 2004. Your lanlord is cheap tell him you want a new
frige or you will call in your own repairman and deduct it from the
rent. Electric heat in the midwest is almost 3x the cost of gas for my
area.
