Genuine Frigidaire part
By: Frigidaire
Part Number: 134535300
Evaporator insulator that surrounds the evaporator assembly to reduce heat transfer and help limit frost buildup. Replacing damaged insulation helps maintain consistent temperatures and prevents excess moisture inside the freezer or refrigerator. What it does:
- Insulates and protects the evaporator area — common signs: visible frost or ice buildup and inconsistent cooling.
- Helps reduce vibration-related noise from evaporator components — common sign: rattling or buzzing.
- Prevents cold-air leakage into cabinet walls to support efficient cooling — common sign: warm spots or extended run times.
- Restores proper airflow pathways around the evaporator to help the system cycle normally.
What's included: One insulator. Install notes:
- Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair.
- Access may require removal of interior panels or the evaporator cover; follow OEM service instructions.
- Handle the insulation gently to avoid tearing or compressing it; use only manufacturer-recommended adhesives or fasteners if needed.
