Product Description
Moisture & Slip-Resistant: A rubber refrigerator floor protector is made from vulcanized rubber, and unlike recycled crumb rubber mats, this makes for a non-slip and water-tight rubber mat. Since rubber has a very high coefficient of friction, this vulcanized rubber mat is also an ideal slip-resistant mat for other walking appliances as well. Coefficient of friction is the force that keeps objects from freely moving against one other. And rubber is called rubber, because it resists sliding when it is rubbed against another surface. Use it to shield machinery or equipment that walks and/or can abrasion to your floors.
Why Do You Need a Floor Protector for Fridge Subfloors?
Refrigerators are large, heavy, and exude moisture. The average weight of a fridge is 200-300lbs, while some can exceed 400lbs. An appliance floor protector is needed just to protect your floors from the weight of these modern giants. Dents, scratches, and scuffs to your wood, or tiled floors can be very expensive. A rubber fridge mat will act as a shielding layer under your fridge or freezer to safeguard the floors from the heavy appliances.
Leaking Water from a Fridge: Most of us assume that the fridge in their home will work well and forever. Since there is no guideline for when a problem can occur, it is not expected and consumers are not ready for a problematic event. If a puddle forms underneath the refrigerator, it may be too late. If you have wood floors or carpet nearby, they will feel the ill effects of moisture permanently. A blocked water line, clogged defrost drain, an uneven fridge, a broken and old door seal can all cause moisture to pass to the bottom of the refrigerator. A rubber floor protector for fridges and freezers is a must when you have expensive floors in your kitchen or other proximate areas.

| How is Moisture Created? | As a freezer operates, it produces moisture. Condensation is the process of water vapor turning back into liquid water and the temperatures difference around the fridge and freezer facilitate this process. One source of condensation and drippings could be dirty or torn door gaskets. When this is ripped or damaged, the airtight seal is no longer present and warm humid air can enter the fridge causing moisture to form. A more problematic source of moisture buildup is an overfilled drip pan, normally situated under the fridge or freezer. The refrigerators drip pan collects any moisture created when it comes out of the appliances drain. |
| Why an Under the Fridge? | Your floors are an expensive investment. Wood, carpet, tiles floors can easily be damaged with moisture, regardless of the volume. This rubber mat will hold light amounts of moisture on its surface, so that it does not reach expensive permanent floors below. The cost of this very inexpensive rubber fridge mat should be judged against the repairer and replacement of your floors! |
| Floor Protection: | The average cost of wood flooring is $15-$20 per square foot installed. Carpet is about $5-10 per square foot, while laminate will vacillate from $5-$13 installed. Flooring a home is not cheap and damage from refrigerator moisture may not be local to your kitchen. A rubber floor protector for fridges and freezers, is a smart investment, especially if your fridge is a little older. |
| Cleaning: | Since this rubber mat is made from natural and reclaimed rubber materials, it demonstrates good resistances to moisture and to mild cleaning solutions, allowing you to clean the mat with your favorite household detergent.
