Description

Vacuum break valve for refrigerator drain helps stop siphoning and keeps defrost and condensation water flowing to the drain pan. Replacing a failed valve restores proper condensate drainage and can reduce leaks and standing water. What it does:

• Allows air into the drain line to break siphoning and maintain steady condensate flow.
• Directs defrost and condensation water to the drain pan to prevent pooling and ice buildup.
• Helps address symptoms such as slow draining, water under crisper/behind kick plate, and intermittent leaks.
• Simple, passive valve with no electrical components.

What's included: Includes: One vacuum break valve. Install notes:

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off breaker) before accessing internal components.
• Access the drain area per your model—typically near the evaporator or rear—remove panels carefully to reach the valve.
• Install with correct orientation and secure tubing connections; replace any cracked or brittle drain tubing.
