Description

The Gasket-Refr Door is an OEM part for Frigidaire refrigerators, designed to ensure an airtight seal around the door, maintaining the appliance's internal temperature and energy efficiency. This gasket prevents warm air from entering and cool air from escaping the refrigerator, crucial for preserving food freshness and minimizing energy consumption.

Causes of a bad Gasket-Refr Door can include physical wear and tear from regular use, accidental damage, or aging, which can lead to hardening, cracking, or tearing of the gasket material.  

Symptoms of a malfunctioning Gasket-Refr Door include:

• Noticeable gaps or looseness around the door perimeter, indicating a poor seal.
• Increased condensation or frost buildup inside the refrigerator, a sign of air leaks.
• The refrigerator runs more frequently or for longer periods, trying to maintain the set temperature.
• Spoilage of food more quickly than usual, due to temperature inconsistencies.

This OEM Frigidaire part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator and some Kenmore models.
