Crosley Refrigerator Air Duct Or Vent

Bottom air diffuser directs cold air into the refrigerator's lower cabinet to help maintain even temperatures and reduce warm spots. Replacing a damaged diffuser restores proper airflow and helps the fresh-food section cool more consistently. What it does:

• Redirects cold air from the cooling channel into the refrigerator's lower cabinet for balanced cooling.
• Helps reduce warm spots and uneven temperatures in the fresh-food area.
• A cracked, broken, or missing diffuser can lead to restricted airflow and inconsistent cabinet temperatures.
• Seats into the lower air channel and secures with factory tabs or fasteners; inspect mounting tabs for damage.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before performing any service.
• Remove shelves and drawers as needed for access; work carefully around evaporator/air channels.
• Gently release and re-seat plastic tabs or remove fasteners; avoid forcing parts to prevent breakage.
• If tabs are damaged, replace them or consider replacing adjacent vent components to ensure a secure fit.

This air diffuser kit replaces the vent/damper assembly that meters cold air from the freezer into the fresh-food section. It restores proper airflow and temperature balance when the original diffuser is stuck, broken, or leaking around the vent.

• Regulates and directs airflow from the freezer to the refrigerator compartment to maintain set temperatures
• Opens/closes the damper to reduce warm or cold spots in the fresh-food section
• Helps resolve symptoms such as a warm refrigerator with a normal freezer, weak airflow at the diffuser, temperature swings, or frost/condensation near the vent
• Replaces cracked housings, missing seals, or jammed/broken damper blades

• Disconnect power before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves
• Remove shelves/covers to access the diffuser; note part orientation and screw locations
• Ensure all seals seat properly to prevent air leaks; do not overtighten plastic fasteners
• Restore power and allow up to 24 hours for temperatures to stabilize; adjust controls as needed

This refrigerator deflector is a molded guide that mounts inside the unit to direct internal airflow where it's needed. Replacing a cracked, warped, or missing deflector helps restore proper circulation for more consistent temperatures and performance.

• Channels airflow within the freezer/dispenser path to maintain even cooling
• Helps reduce frost or ice buildup caused by misdirected air
• Can address symptoms like warm spots, frost around vents, or rattling from loose parts
• Replace if broken, deformed, or missing

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Remove shelves/panels as needed to access the mounting location; keep track of screws/clips
• Install the new deflector in the same orientation; reuse existing hardware
• Reassemble and verify that vents/air passages are unobstructed

This top air diffuser directs cold airflow inside the refrigerator compartment to help maintain even temperature distribution and reduce hot spots. It replaces a cracked or damaged diffuser to restore proper airflow direction. What it does:

• Channels and disperses cold air from the evaporator into the fresh food cavity
• Helps prevent uneven cooling and localized warm spots
• Replaces broken, cracked, or warped diffusers that cause poor airflow
• Reduces gusty or misdirected airflow noises when damaged

• One top air diffuser

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair
• Remove shelves and any interior trim blocking access to the diffuser
• Typically snaps or screws into place; handle gently to avoid cracking
