Your home runs on your appliances. At Aplico Hill Ltd, we believe that buying a premium Ecomax product is just the start.

We have compiled these “Pro-Tips” from our years of experience as your trusted refrigeration and appliance partners. Follow these steps to keep your home efficient and your KPLC bills low!
1. Ecomax Refrigerators & Freezers: Cooling with Confidence
Whether you have the massive 506L 4-Door Fridge or a heavy-duty Chest Freezer, cooling efficiency depends on airflow and consistency.
- Respect the 10cm Rule: Never push your fridge flush against the wall. Leave at least 10cm of space around the unit. This allows the heat-exchange coils to “breathe,” preventing the compressor from overworking.
- The Ambient Temperature Strategy: Place your cooling units in the coolest part of the room. Keep them away from ovens, windows with direct afternoon sun, or heat-trapping corners.
- Maintain the Seals: Wipe your magnetic door gaskets every month with a damp cloth. Clean seals create an airtight lock, ensuring the Fast Cooling air stays inside.
- Avoid Overstuffing: Leave “breathing room” between your groceries. Proper airflow ensures the Multi-Airflow system reaches every shelf equally.
- Defrost Early: For chest freezers, manually defrost once the ice layer reaches 5mm. Excessive ice acts as an insulator, forcing the motor to run longer and use more electricity.
2. Ecomax “Easy Life” Washing Machines: Laundry Made Simple
A fully automatic machine like the Ecomax 7kg Top Load handles the hard work, but it requires a clean environment to perform its best.
- Clean the Water Inlet Filter: If your machine fills slowly, silt or salt from your water supply might be clogging the filter. Simply unscrew the water hose, remove the plastic mesh filter with pliers, and rinse it under a tap.
- Level Your Load: Always distribute heavy items like towels or jeans evenly around the Stainless Steel Diamond Drum. A balanced load prevents the “thumping” noise and stops the machine from moving during high-speed spins.
- Air Dry the Drum: After your final spin, leave the lid open for 20 minutes. This allows moisture to evaporate, preventing mildew and keeping the interior smelling fresh.
- The Pocket Check: Always empty your pockets before washing. Small items like coins, keys, or hairpins can damage the water pump or the drum finish.
3. Smart Entertainment: Ecomax TVs & Woofers
- Protect Your Screen: Always use a dedicated TV Guard. Inverters and Smart TVs are sensitive to power spikes; a guard is the cheapest insurance you can buy.
- Give the Bass Room: Place your Ecomax Woofer on a solid, open surface. Tucking a woofer into a tight wooden cabinet muffled the sound and can cause the internal amplifier to overheat.
4. The “Gold Standard” of Protection
Regardless of the appliance, the Kenya Power (KPLC) environment requires vigilance.
- Always use a Guard: At Aplico Hill Ltd, we often include a free fridge guard with premium units. Use it! as instructed by the Ecomax Home Appliance Care
- Initial Cooling: When your new fridge arrives, let it stand upright for at least 4 to 6 hours before plugging it in. This allows the refrigerant oils to settle after transit, protecting your 10-Year Compressor Warranty.
