The Air Tower and Evaporator Cover Assembly is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This multi-piece component is located inside the refrigerator compartment and manages airflow that travels through the evaporator coil area. An attractive cover protects inner workings while directing optimal temperature control.  

Symptoms of a bad air tower assembly include:  

• Audible air disturbances accompanied by inconsistent interior temperatures
• Buildup of frost or moisture collecting outside the evaporator area
• Inability of warm food to adequately cool down inside the fridge  

Causes relate to cracks developing in thermoplastic covers after years of climate cycling strains. Closed airways may become obstructed as well affecting circulation.

This GE OEM replacement restores reliable humidity management and product cooling. Its enduring construction circulates purified air for consistent food holding at proper temperatures per federal guidelines. Compatible with GE and select Kenmore side-by-side models for direct fit airflow performance.
