The Oven Seal is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire ovens. This seal is installed around the oven door to create a tight barrier, preventing heat from escaping during operation. By maintaining the internal temperature, the seal ensures efficient cooking and baking while reducing energy consumption.
Over time, the oven seal can wear out or become damaged due to exposure to high temperatures, frequent use, or accidental mishandling. A compromised seal can lead to heat loss, uneven cooking, or longer preheating times.
Symptoms of a bad oven seal include:
- Heat escaping from the oven door
- Longer cooking times or unevenly cooked food
- The oven taking longer to preheat
- Visible cracks, tears, or flattening of the seal
This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.
