Rubber-Cal Under The Fridge Mat - 5mm x 48" x 36"

These 5mm thick mats for under refrigerators and freezers are available in three sizes. Since this product is vulcanized from high-quality natural rubber and reclaimed rubber products, it will present a moisture-resistant barrier between the fridge and your floors. If your refrigerator, mini-fridge, or freezer sweats, these mats function as refrigerator floor water protector mats. They form a shield between the appliance and the floor surface, giving you time and notice to address any issues regarding excess or problematic condensation. These are especially ideal products for hardwood floors. Water is a floor’s worst enemy as moisture can travel below the floor’s surface onto neighboring floor areas. If your kitchen is situated close to your family room, both floor surfaces and their underlayment may be exposed to moisture. Water damage can lead to a warping of the wood floors, and when this excess moisture permeates the hardwood, it primarily affects the unfinished underside of the boards. If moisture is left on laminate or carpet for too long, it can cause the backing of the carpet to rot or the underlayment of both products to be permanently damaged. Consider the cost of removing, replacing, and installing new flooring versus buying rubber a mat for under a mini-fridge, freezer or refrigerator. Refrigeration equipment secretes moisture due to damaged drain pans, faulty door seals, or clogged drain lines. This can happen anytime and without warning. A refrigerator floor protector mat, if installed at the time of installation of the fridge, will protect the floors throughout the life of the equipment. A mat under fridges or freezers needs to be water- resistant, and these aesthetically pleasing rubber mats are 100% water-tight and will not allow water to pass through the surface of the rubber mat.
