General Electric Refrigerator Evaporator

This evaporator assembly with integrated defrost heater removes heat from the freezer compartment and helps prevent frost buildup for reliable cooling performance. It replaces a failed coil/heater assembly to restore normal defrost cycles and temperature control. What it does:

• Circulates refrigerant through the evaporator coil to absorb heat from the freezer compartment.
• Heats the coil during defrost cycles to melt accumulated frost and ice.
• Helps resolve symptoms like frost buildup on the evaporator, poor cooling or warm freezer temperatures, and frequent compressor cycling.
• Works as the core refrigeration coil tied to the refrigerator's defrost system.

• Disconnect power before servicing to avoid shock or injury.
• Replacing this part may require accessing sealed refrigerant lines; do not open refrigerant system unless qualified and certified.
• Handle the evaporator coil and fins carefully to avoid damage; wear gloves to protect from sharp edges.

This complete evaporator assembly replaces a malfunctioning freezer evaporator to restore consistent cooling and proper defrosting. Fits frost-free refrigerator freezers and provides the core evaporator components in one unit. What it does

• Removes heat from the freezer compartment so the refrigerator can maintain low temperatures.
• Supports the defrost cycle to prevent excessive frost and ice build-up on the evaporator coil.
• Helps resolve symptoms such as poor cooling, long run times, or visible ice accumulation on the evaporator.
• Works with the fridge's defrost system.

• One complete evaporator assembly.

• Disconnect power before starting any repair to avoid electrical shock.
• Replacement may involve sealed refrigerant lines or components.
• Follow OEM instructions and safety guidelines when installing.

This evaporator coil assembly circulates refrigerant and absorbs heat inside the freezer section to enable efficient cooling and proper temperature control. Replacing a worn or damaged coil restores normal refrigeration performance. What it does:

• Circulates refrigerant through the freezer evaporator to remove heat from the air
• Helps maintain cold temperatures and proper defrost cycling when functioning correctly
• Commonly linked to symptoms such as reduced cooling, excessive frost or ice buildup, or long run times
• Works with the freezer compartment's fan and defrost system to keep airflow and temperature stable

• Disconnect power before beginning any service to avoid electrical shock
• Refrigerant system work (evacuating or recharging) must be performed by a certified HVAC/refrigeration technician per local regulations
• Handle the coil carefully to avoid bending fins or damaging the tubing and connections
• Confirm fit and necessary mounting hardware or gaskets before installation; additional components may be required

This evaporator is the sealed refrigeration coil assembly used in many side-by-side refrigerators to remove heat and help keep the freezer and fresh-food compartments cold. Replacing a failing evaporator restores proper cooling and frost control. What it does:

• Circulates refrigerant through the freezer compartment to absorb heat and maintain low temperatures
• Allows the defrost system to melt frost from the evaporator surface during defrost cycles
• Commonly linked to symptoms such as excessive frost or ice buildup in the freezer, poor or uneven cooling, and frequent running of the compressor
• Works with the evaporator fan and defrost components to support normal refrigerator operation

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• This is a sealed-system component; avoid opening refrigerant lines
• Inspect surrounding gaskets, mounting clips, and defrost components during replacement and replace as needed
• Follow OEM service instructions for proper routing, mounting, and leak testing after installation

This evaporator fan assembly circulates cold air from the freezer evaporator to help maintain even temperatures and proper cooling. Reliable airflow helps reduce frost buildup and keeps food frozen. What it does:

• Moves cold air across the freezer evaporator coil for consistent temperature distribution
• Helps the refrigerator reach and maintain set freezer temperatures
• Supports proper defrost cycle performance by circulating air after defrost
• Commonly replaces noisy, non-spinning, or intermittent freezer fan operation

• Disconnect power before beginning any repair to avoid electrical shock
• Access typically requires removing interior freezer panels; handle evaporator fins and fan blade with care
• Secure mounting screws and wire connectors exactly as removed; do not force connectors

This evaporator coil circulates refrigerant inside the freezer compartment to absorb heat and keep internal temperatures cold. Replacing a damaged evaporator restores proper cold transfer for reliable cooling performance. What it does:

• Absorbs heat from the freezer compartment by circulating refrigerant through the coil
• Helps maintain proper freezer and refrigerator temperatures when functioning correctly
• Common symptom: excessive frost or ice buildup on the evaporator fins
• Common symptom: warm freezer or refrigerator temps and longer run cycles
• Common symptom: compressor runs constantly or cooling becomes inconsistent

• Disconnect power to the appliance before any service to avoid electrical shock
• Refrigerant system access or refrigerant evacuation may be required; have a certified HVAC/refrigeration technician perform refrigerant work
• May require removal of interior panels, shelving, and insulation for access; follow factory service instructions
• Handle the coil carefully to avoid bending fins or damaging tubing

This evaporator assembly circulates refrigerant and helps remove heat and humidity from the freezer compartment, restoring proper cold and frost control. Replaces the internal evaporator box to improve cooling performance and defrost function. What it does:

• Houses the evaporator coil to allow refrigerant evaporation and heat exchange
• Enables proper cold airflow and consistent freezer temperatures
• Supports the defrost cycle by routing meltwater to the drain system
• Commonly replaced for frost buildup, weak cooling, or abnormal freezer temperatures

• One evaporator assembly (evaporator box) as shown

• Requires access to the freezer interior; disconnect power before starting
• May require removal of shelving, panels, and the evaporator cover for access
• Follow OEM instructions for proper refrigerant and wiring handling; replace any damaged gaskets or seals
