Description

This evaporator cover protects and directs airflow around the refrigerator evaporator assembly to help maintain proper cooling and reduce frost buildup. It replaces a damaged or missing evaporator cover to restore proper airflow and component protection. What it does:

• Shields the evaporator coil and associated components from debris and direct contact
• Helps direct cold airflow from the evaporator to the freezer and refrigerator compartments
• Reduces uneven frost buildup on the evaporator that can impair cooling efficiency
• Supports proper drainage of defrost water away from the coil and into the drain system

What's included:

• One evaporator cover (1 piece) — only the cover shown

Install notes:

• Always unplug the appliance or turn off power at the breaker before starting service
• Allow the evaporator to fully defrost if ice is present; remove relevant inner panels and fasteners to access the cover
• Handle plastic parts gently to avoid cracking; reinstall fasteners securely so the cover seats correctly
