Description

This compressor cover is a molded protective housing that fits over the refrigerator compressor to shield components and help manage airflow. It restores a finished appearance and helps keep debris and pests away from the compressor area. What it does:

• Protects the compressor and electrical connections from dust, dirt and accidental contact
• Helps direct airflow around the compressor for proper ventilation
• Reduces exposure that can allow pests or debris to interfere with components
• Addresses symptoms like an exposed/cracked cover, rattling from loose or damaged housing, or visible compressor components

What's included:

• One compressor cover (1 pc) as shown

Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing the rear lower compartment
• Move the refrigerator away from the wall to access the compressor area; two people may be needed for safe handling
• Remove any mounting clips or screws before lifting the old cover off; align and secure the replacement until clips engage
• Wear gloves and eye protection; avoid bending or forcing the cover to prevent breakage
