Ekukhuleni kwabo, abantu abaninzi bacinga ukuba eyona nto intle ngefriji yisixhobo sokwakha umkhenkce kunye nesikhupha amanzi esakhelwe ngaphakathi. Nangona kunjalo, ezi zinto zisenokungabi ntle kangako.
Ngokutsho kweengcali zeTikToker Twin Home (@twinhomeexperts), izixhobo zokuhambisa amanzi ezakhelwe ngaphakathi azinzima nje kuphela ukuzigcina zicocekile, kodwa zisenokungawacoci amanzi ngendlela ongathanda ngayo.
Kwividiyo esasazekileyo ebukelwe izihlandlo ezingaphezu kwama-305,000, uthe abantu bangangcono bathenge ifriji engaxabisi kangako. Endaweni yoko, xa kufikwa kwizisombululo zamanzi okusela acocekileyo emakhaya, imali yabo kufuneka ityalwe kwenye indawo.
Nangona kunjalo, iividiyo zeTikToker zibangele umsindo. Abanye abantu abaphendule bathi ukutshintsha isihluzo sefriji akubizi kakhulu njengoko watshoyo. Abanye bathi bakwazile ukufumana isisombululo sesixhobo sokuhambisa amanzi efrijini.
Iingcali zeTwin Home ziqala ividiyo ngokubiza abavelisi beefriji ukuba bathathe inxaxheba kwinto abayibiza ngokuba bubuqhetseba bokucoca amanzi.
“Enye yezona nkohliso zinkulu zefriji zenzeka apha. Masithethe ngefriji enomatshini wokwenza umkhenkce kunye nesixhobo sokuhambisa amanzi,” utshilo uTikToker. “Njengoko usazi, ezi friji zinezihluzo zamanzi ezakhelwe ngaphakathi. Kodwa yingxaki, kwaye yingxaki eqhubekayo yengeniso.”
“Bafuna utshintshe uze uthenge isihluzo rhoqo emva kweenyanga ezintandathu,” waqhubeka. “Isihluzo ngasinye sixabisa phantse i-$60. Ingxaki kukuba akukho zinto zaneleyo zekhabhoni kwezi zihluzo zokucoca zonke izinto ezingcolileyo.”
Wongeze kwi-overlay yombhalo ukuba balungile kuphela ekufihleni "incasa" kunye "nevumba." Ngoko ke, nangona amanzi akho esenokunganuki, angajongi okanye anganambitheki, oko akuthethi ukuba acocekile ngokupheleleyo.
Iingcali zobomi basekhaya zithi kukho isisombululo esikrelekrele samanzi okusela ekhaya. “Ngaphantsi kwe-$400, ungathenga isihluzo esikwi-intanethi sesinki yakho yasekhitshini. Sitshintshe rhoqo ngeelitha eziyi-6,000.”
Izihluzi ezikwi-intanethi zingcono “ekunikeni amanzi asemgangathweni ophezulu kuwe nakusapho lwakho,” utshilo. Kwaye wonge imali.
ICoway-USA ipapashe inqaku elichaza izizathu ezininzi zokuba kutheni abantu kufuneka baphephe ukusebenzisa izihluzi zamanzi kwiifriji zabo. Le blogi iphinda ixhalabe elivezwe ziingcali zezindlu ezimbini ezithi isihluzi sefriji "sibuthathaka" ngokwenene. Ukongeza, izinto ezingcolisayo eziseleyo zinokuhlala kwezi zihluzi nokuba sele zisetyenzisiwe.
Le ndawo iqhubeka idwelisa ezinye iingxaki zokusela amanzi ahluziweyo efrijini. “Ukwanda kweebhaktheriya, igwele kunye nokungunda kwiimpompo kunokwenza amanzi okusela angakhuseleki nakubantu abane-allergies.” Nangona kunjalo, kubalulekile ukuqaphela ukuba iCoway ithengisa uluhlu lwee-water filters zayo.
Iimodeli ezininzi zefriji zikwanakho ukufaka isihluzi somgca ngqo kwisixhobo.
Omnye umsebenzisi weReddit wabuza ukuba kutheni isixhobo sakhe sineentlobo ezimbini zezihluzo, nto leyo eyabangela ingxoxo malunga nokusebenza kakuhle kwezihluzo. Abantu abaphendule kwingxelo yabo baxoxe ngeziphumo zovavanyo lwabo lwamanzi. Ngamazwi abo: Umgangatho wamanzi kwisihluzo sefriji awahlukanga kangako kumanzi angahluzwanga kwisinki.
Nangona kunjalo, kuthekani ngamanzi ahluziweyo angaphakathi aphuma phantsi kwesinki? Xa le nkwenkwe ivulwa, uvavanyo lubonisa ukuba ikhupha amasuntswana amanzi ambalwa kakhulu.
Nangona abanye abantu beyincoma le filter eyakhelwe ngaphakathi, bekukho abantu abaninzi abathetha ngevidiyo yeTwin Home Experts abangavumelaniyo neTikTok.
“Ndifumana iziphumo ezintle kakhulu. Andizange ndisele amanzi amaninzi kangaka kuba besinesifriji esinamanzi akhelwe ngaphakathi. Izihluzo zethu ziyifriji yeSamsung ebiza i-$30, ezimbini kuzo,” utshilo omnye umntu.
Omnye wabhala wathi: “Andikaze nditshintshe isihluzo ukusukela oko ndathenga ifriji yam kwiminyaka engama-20 eyadlulayo. Amanzi asenambitheka ngcono kakhulu kunamanzi epompo. Ngoko ke ndiza kuqhubeka ndenza oko ndikwenzayo.”
Abanye abanikeli bemibono bacebise ukuba abanini beefriji bafake nje isihluzo se-bypass. Esi sixhobo siza kubavumela ukuba basebenzise uyilo olwakhelwe ngaphakathi kwizihluzi zamanzi kwiifriji. “Kubiza malunga ne-$20 ukwenza isihluzo se-bypass. Akusayi kufuneka sitshintshwe,” utshilo omnye umsebenzisi.
Omnye umsebenzisi weTikTok uxhase le ngcinga: “Ungadlula kwesi sihluzo kabini uze ufake isihluzo esakhelwe ngaphakathi kwifriji yakho.”
