Can You Lay A Fridge Down?

Yes! Actually, the air shipping company also requires laying down the fridges if they are over 1650 mm in height.

If it’s a commercial fridge with a glass door, make sure the glass side is on top when laid down.

Once you get the fridge in the location please leave the unit standing upright for at least 6 hours before plugin. Why? It takes that long to be certain that the inside oil in the system has drained back down to the compressor and the refrigerant has re-balanced itself. Otherwise, the compressor will break or the inside pipes will get blocked probably.
