QuestionHi - Does this refrigerator come with handles on the left (or the right)? If I need to switch the handles to the other side, does that comprise the tightness of the seal on the doors? Also does it cause a risk of having the doors not line up properly?
Asked 5 years ago by BeachLady.
This question was asked about the related product: GE - 14.6 Cu. Ft. Top-Freezer Refrigerator
- Answer Hi BeachLady - Thanks for considering GE! GTE15CTHRBB is equipped with a right hand door meaning the hinges are on the right and the handle is on the left. The door swing is reversible and does not compromise the fit/door seal or door alignment. The instructions are provided in the Installation Guide at the following link: https://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=49-60801-2.pdf - Keep in touch!

QuestionNeed air circulation info. Can long bins go over holes in back of area above two pullout drawers. I do not think air circulates out of these holes. In refrigerator does air circulation just come out of the top back area
Asked 6 years ago by pjm7249.
- Answer Hi pjm7249 - Thanks for viewing GE! The holes on the rear of the vegetable/fruit drawer cover allows for good air circulation through the drawers. We do not recommended covering these holes. Thanks for checking with us! Sue

QuestionWhat is the running and the peak startup AMP draw of this refrigerator. Does it require a Pure Sine Wave current or will it run on Modified Sine Wave current
Asked 6 years ago by J.
This question was asked about the related product: GE - 14.6 Cu. Ft. Top-Freezer Refrigerator
- Answer Hi J - The unit is 6.5 amps, which takes in account the highest draw, which is the defrost system (occurs twice a day). We do not test the unit on inverters, so we cannot comment on whether you would need a pure sine wave or a modified sine wave current. We recommend plugging it into a grounded 3-prong outlet on a 15 or 20 amp dedicated 120v circuit. Thanks for viewing GE! Sue

QuestionIs the outside finish textured? And is it a quiet operating refrigerator?
Asked 6 years ago by Anonymous.
This question was asked about the related product: GE - 14.6 Cu. Ft. Top-Freezer Refrigerator
- Answer Hi - Yes, the outside finish is textured. Also, you should be pleased with your choice. Our refrigerators continue to be manufactured with as quiet an operation as possible. We realize the kitchen is a popular gathering place. When the surrounding noise is low, you may hear a high-pitched hum or pulsating sound while it is operating. The type of installation, floor type (wood, tile, carpet) and room acoustics can all affect the normal operating sounds that you may hear. We'd love to have you in the GE Appliances Family and hope you'll place your trust in us! SUE@GEA

QuestionI plan on using this in an unheated garage. It can see a temperature as low as 28 F and 85 F as a high. Can this unit withstand those extremes?
Asked 8 years ago by Abby.
- Answer Hi Abby- This is Sue at GE Appliances. It is not recommended that refrigerators be used in unheated locations, such as garages, porches, or unheated rooms during periods when the temperature is likely to fall below 60 degrees Fahrenheit. At this temperature, the unit is less efficient and will continue to lose efficiency as the outdoor temperature decreases. At 32 degrees, there is no cooling capability at all. Also, we do not recommend installing a refrigerator where the temperature will exceed 110 degrees Fahrenheit.
