The Refrigerator Door Gasket is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire refrigerators. It forms a seal around the refrigerator door, keeping cold air inside and preventing warm air from entering. This helps maintain consistent temperatures inside the appliance, ensuring optimal food preservation and energy efficiency.
Causes of a bad gasket can include regular wear and tear, exposure to temperature fluctuations, or damage from cleaning agents. Over time, the gasket may lose its elasticity or develop cracks, compromising the refrigerator's seal and performance.
Symptoms of a bad gasket include:
- Difficulty in keeping the refrigerator door closed securely
- Excess condensation or frost buildup inside the refrigerator
- Warm spots or inconsistent cooling in the appliance
- Increased energy usage due to the refrigerator running more frequently
This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.
