The Air Duct is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is a component that directs cool air throughout the appliance. The air duct is designed to channel air from the freezer section to the fresh food section.
Causes of a bad air duct can include cracks or fractures in the ducting material, damage to air vents or directional fins, or blockages that disrupt proper air flow.
Symptoms of a bad air duct include:
- Inconsistent or uneven interior temperatures
- Longer cool down times after door openings
- Frost or condensation issues in problem areas
- Portions of refrigerator not maintaining proper temperatures
This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.
