The Gasket-FIP  is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators, ensures an airtight seal around the door, preventing cold air from escaping and warm air from entering. This component contributes to the refrigerator's energy efficiency and cooling effectiveness, maintaining the optimal internal temperature to keep your food fresh longer. 

Causes of a bad Gasket-FIP can range from normal wear and tear, accidental damage, or deformation due to improper cleaning methods or exposure to extreme temperatures.  

Symptoms of a bad Gasket-FIP include:

• Noticeable gaps between the gasket and the refrigerator door or frame
• Condensation or frost buildup near the door edges
• The refrigerator working harder to maintain its internal temperature, potentially leading to increased energy bills
• The door not closing as smoothly or firmly as it should
