WR87X36103 General Electric Refrigerator Evaporator, Equipped with a Heater

The Refrigerator Evaporator, equipped with a heater, is a genuine OEM part designed for GE refrigerators. It functions by cooling the air in the freezer and refrigerator compartments through the processes of vaporization and circulation. Additionally, it includes a built-in heater to mitigate condensation and prevent frost buildup.

GE's brand portfolio encompasses several names including Cafe, General Electric, Monogram, Haier, Hotpoint, Profile, Fisher & Paykel, and Sears-Kenmore. This evaporator is compatible with various models from these brands, including later models from Hotpoint, RCA, and select Kenmore refrigerators.

Factors leading to evaporator failure may involve regular wear and tear, damage due to leaks, or complications with the heating element.

Common indicators of a malfunctioning evaporator are:
- Inconsistent or insufficient cooling in different compartments.
- Frequent frost or condensation, necessitating regular defrosting.
- Elevated energy consumption paired with failure to keep adequate temperatures.
- Unpleasant odors coming from the refrigerator.

Replacing the evaporator can significantly enhance the cooling efficiency, energy usage, and overall freshness preservation in your refrigerator.
