Whirlpool Refrigerator Evaporator

This is a Whirlpool refrigerator evaporator. The evaporator is the large, winding piece on the rear of a refrigerator. When touched, these components are extremely hot. Refrigerant is propelled through these by the compressor. The extremely cold refrigerant, coupled with the high temperature of the evaporator tubes, cause a reaction that produces cold air when the refrigerant reaches the freezer or refrigerator area. If the evaporator is faulty, the refrigerator area may continue to remain at temperature, but the freezer portion will stop freezing. Cool temperatures may be maintained, but freezing levels will no longer be met. In some cases, the entire until may cease to produce low temperatures at all. This is an indicator of a completely broken component. This product is intended for use in Whirlpool and Kenmore appliances. It is a genuine OEM product and is sourced exclusively from the manufacturer. This part is only available as an individual component.

This genuine replacement part is an evaporator used in refrigerators. The evaporator is the part that exchanges heat to cool the refrigerator. It is the component of the refrigerator that absorbs the heat from the air inside, turning it cool through absorption. If the refrigerator is no longer cooling properly, this could mean it's time for a new evaporator. This is a genuine replacement evaporator compatible with Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, Sears, and Kenmore brand refrigerators.

This is an evaporator for refrigerators. The evaporator has refrigerant going through it, and when it turns from a liquid into a gas through evaporation, it cools the area around it. This is what provides the proper temperatures for the refrigerator to keep food from spoiling. If it's not working properly, it could mean that the refrigerator won't stay cool.The evaporator could be damaged if the refrigerator is dropped during a move, although it's rare. Over time, the evaporator could start to suffer from wear and tear.The evaporator will work on certain models of refrigerators from KitchenAid and Whirlpool. It is a genuine OEM replacement part, and it is sold individually.

The Evaporator Coil is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is responsible for absorbing heat from the refrigerator interior as refrigerant passes through its fine tubes and fins. Cool air is then circulated through convection to maintain consistent temperatures.

Causes of a bad evaporator coil can include mineral deposits or frozen moisture clogging fins over time, physical damage to tubes, or corrosion of metal surfaces.

Symptoms of a bad evaporator coil include:  

• Inability to decrease interior temperatures sufficiently  
• High energy bills due to inefficient heat transfer
• Abnormal ice buildup inside due to poor airflow
• Warm or lukewarm areas inside the refrigerator compartment

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, Jenn-Air, KitchenAid, and some GE models.
