General Electric Freezer Cap Or Cover

This evaporator cover is the molded inner housing that protects the refrigerator evaporator coil and helps route cold air and defrost water for reliable cooling performance. It fits behind the freezer liner and keeps components sealed and organized. What it does:

• Shields the evaporator coil from debris and contact, reducing damage risk
• Directs airflow over the evaporator for even cooling through the compartment
• Channels defrost water to the drain pan to prevent pooling or leaking
• Helps maintain proper clearances around the coil to reduce frost buildup
• Works with fan and defrost components to support normal cooling cycles

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair
• Remove all contents and interior panels as needed to access the evaporator area
• Handle near the evaporator coil and fan with care to avoid damaging fins or wiring
• Reassemble panels and verify defrost drain and seals are seated before restoring power

This plastic evaporator cover protects the refrigerator's evaporator and promotes proper airflow for consistent cooling. It helps keep ice buildup and debris away from the evaporator coil for more reliable operation. What it does:

• Shields the evaporator coil to reduce direct contact with food and debris
• Directs airflow across the coil to support even cooling inside the freezer compartment
• Helps minimize frost buildup by maintaining correct airflow patterns
• Common symptom: visible damage, cracks, or missing cover that lead to frost, reduced cooling, or noisy airflow

• Basic replacement that may require removing interior liners or shelves for access
• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any work
• Handle carefully to avoid damaging mounting tabs or nearby components
• Fully defrost and dry the area before installing
