As a result, the temperature inside the fridge rises and the main engine or ‘compressor’ has to work twice as hard to cool it down again. According to various reports, this frequent door-opening idiocy can increase a refrigerator’s electricity consumption by up to 20 percent.

How much current the fridge will burn depends not only on opening the door, but also on other factors. For example, the bigger the size of the fridge, the higher the bill.
