Whirlpool Drip Pan W11457241 OEM Part

Whirlpool encompasses a variety of brands, such as Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Additionally, Whirlpool supplies components for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea. This particular offering is an authentic OEM refrigerator drip tray, crafted by Whirlpool. The tray measures approximately 20 inches by 16 inches, with a depth of 2 inches, and is specifically designed to substitute worn-out, corroded, or damaged evaporator drip trays.

The primary role of this drip tray is to gather water from the evaporator coils during the refrigerator’s defrost cycle. A compromised drip tray can result in water leaks. To replace the tray, simply remove the existing one from beneath the evaporator coils and install the new tray. This task is straightforward and does not require specialized tools or skills.

Ensuring a functional drainage system for the defrosted water is vital for maintaining optimal refrigerator performance and extending its service life. This replacement part is compatible with a range of Whirlpool brand models, including Jenn Air, Kenmore, KitchenAid, and Maytag.
