Positioned around the edge of the refrigerator door, the gasket acts as a tight seal that blocks the entry of air and moisture when the door is shut.<br /><br /><b>Signs of a defective door gasket might include:</b><br /><br />1. Increased electricity costs due to poor insulation<br />2. Condensation or ice formation on the interior surfaces of the door<br />3. Noticeable drafts in the refrigerator or freezer compartments<br />4. The door not closing properly or securely<br /><br />A gasket might fail due to normal wear such as shrinking over time, which creates gaps, or due to damage like tears or cracks caused by frequent use or accidental heavy closure. Dirt accumulation along the gasket’s edges can also impair its function.<br /><br />This Whirlpool OEM part is also suitable for use with appliances from KitchenAid and Kenmore.
