This air tower directs cold air from the evaporator into the fresh-food and freezer compartments to help keep temperatures even and maintain food freshness. Replacing a cracked or damaged tower restores proper airflow. What it does:

• Channels chilled air from the evaporator to refrigerator and freezer compartments
• Helps reduce hot spots and uneven cooling when functioning correctly
• Prevents airflow leaks that can cause frost buildup or excessive cycling
• Works with existing evaporator and blower fan to distribute air

What's included:

• One air tower (air duct assembly)

Install notes:

• Disconnect power before servicing to avoid electrical shock
• Remove interior liners or shelves as needed; handle plastic shrouds gently to avoid cracking
• Verify fit and orientation match the original before final fastening
