How old is a Kelvinator fridge model number 465?

Answer 1

I'm not sure exactly on the year but these three digit model number Kelvinators are very old, they predate the concept of energy electricity. Very heavy duty materials, as was the custom when they first started making electrical goods (this was before consumer expectation levels dropped low enough to tolerate poor quality appliances, the advertising was enough to sell an appliance of any level of craftsmanship).

In fact it is likely that your fridge requires the burning of 4 times as much coal compared to the fancy new ones, and costing 4 times as much money to run (the fridge is the second highest energy consumer in the house, after air conditioning of course). Not to mention that it is quite an unusually large energy drain, these really old fridges, which is going to be a problem because a lot of houses built in the decades after that fridge was built were not designed to deliver that much electricity to a single outlet, I have done thousands of jobs on tripped/damaged breakers on this alone (and Even more hours repairing and upgrading entire systems when the installed breakers woild not ever stop tripping under these really old units.

A unit this old should not be used. It should not very given away either, it needs to be taken out of use by calling your cities information services and asking for the number of who to call about something like this.

i cant tell you exactly what year it was made dont no what this other guys problem is^^ answer the question at hand PLEASE!!!!! i have one myself and i do use it gotta love the classics our energy bill is still cheaper then our friends anyway. It is about 1956 - 1958 somewhere in that gap :D
