Dispenser Drip Tray WR17X34471 OEM Part

The Refrigerator Dispenser Drip Tray, crafted in a stainless steel finish, is an authentic OEM part specifically engineered for GE refrigerators. This component is compatible with several GE-affiliated brands, including Cafe, General Electric, Monogram, Haier, Hotpoint, Profile, Fisher & Paykel, and select Sears-Kenmore models. Located beneath the evaporator coils and catch pan in the refrigerator's fresh food area, the drip tray efficiently collects and directs condensation and moisture formed during the cooling process. It channels this water towards the drain through gravity, aiding in keeping the interior dry.<br /><br />Common problems with drip trays may result from obstructed drainage due to mineral buildup or debris, and degradation from long-term moisture exposure.<br /><br />Signs of an impaired drip tray include:<br />- Water pooling at the refrigerator's bottom.<br />- Excess moisture or ice around the coils and catch pan.<br />- Musty odors caused by stagnant water.<br /><br />Replacing a malfunctioning drip tray with this GE OEM component can effectively restore moisture management. It is also compatible with certain Kenmore, Hotpoint, and RCA refrigerator models.
