The claims I found were that using the serpentines of the fridge to heat water rendered it more difficult for the heat to dissipate, increasing the load on the compressor in order to mantain a low temperature inside. So, compared to the electrically-heated shower heads more usual in my country, maybe the only economy would be not having to replace a heating element inside the shower head again
