The article investigates the temperature-humidity characteristics zones "freshness" of household refrigerating appliance. The paper presents the results of measurements of temperature and moisture characteristics in the section "freshness" in refrigerator-freezer «Indesit BIA181 NF». The obtained results of the experiments, experimental studies have shown that the parameters of temperature and humidity of air in the area of "freshness" are in a wider range in comparison with the required their ra-tional values, which is the reason for the decline of quality cold storage.
