The Fresh Food Door Gasket is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It creates an airtight seal around the refrigerator door, helping to maintain the internal temperature and keep food fresh by preventing warm air from entering the refrigerator. This gasket measures approximately 44.70" X 27.16".
You should replace the fresh food door gasket if it becomes worn out or damaged. Causes of a bad door gasket can include regular wear and tear, damage from frequent opening and closing of the door, and exposure to temperature fluctuations. Over time, the gasket may become brittle, crack, or develop mold.
Symptoms of a bad fresh food door gasket include:
- Warm air entering the refrigerator, leading to higher internal temperatures
- The refrigerator running more frequently or for longer periods
- Visible cracks, tears, or mold on the gasket
- Difficulty in closing the refrigerator door securely
This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
