This insulation panel helps reduce heat transfer in the refrigerator cabinet so the appliance holds cold temperatures more efficiently and reduces frost buildup. It's a direct-fit replacement for the factory cabinet insulation. What it does:

• Slows thermal transfer between the cabinet and ambient air to help maintain interior temperatures
• Helps reduce frost buildup on evaporator and interior surfaces
• Improves cooling efficiency by minimizing cold-air loss
• Quietly adds a layer of thermal and acoustic insulation behind the liner
