Description

This replacement drain pan collects defrost water from the evaporator and holds it in the machine compartment so it can evaporate. Replacing a cracked, warped, or missing pan helps prevent puddles under the appliance and musty odors. What it does:

• Collects defrost and condensate water routed through the drain tube
• Sits near the compressor/condenser so heat and airflow aid evaporation
• Helps prevent floor leaks caused by a damaged or misaligned pan
• Common symptoms may include water under the unit, visible pan cracks/warping, rattling from a loose pan, or persistent musty smells

What's included:

• Includes 1 drain pan

Install notes:

• Unplug the appliance and pull it forward to access the rear; remove the lower rear access panel
• Remove the old pan and transfer any clips or supports if present
• Seat the drain tube into the new pan and position the pan level, clear of moving parts
• Reinstall the access panel and restore power; check for proper drainage after a defrost cycle
