Tappan Freezer Compressors

The evaporator is always located on the inside of the refrigerator, usually inside the freezer compartment. It also resembles a radiator.

Keep your refrigerator or freezer cooling efficiently with this heat exchanger. It moves heat out of the appliance and helps maintain the right temperature for your food. If your unit isn’t staying cold, replacing this part can restore performance and save energy.

If your refrigerator isn’t cooling properly, the compressor may be the issue. This vital part acts as the heart of the cooling system, circulating refrigerant to keep your appliance at the right temperature. It works by pressurizing the refrigerant gas, which then releases heat and cools as it moves through the system. When the compressor fails or there’s a leak, cooling performance drops significantly. Replacing it can restore your refrigerator’s function and help prevent further issues. For best results, ensure the compressor is properly lubricated and cooled during operation.

Keep your refrigerator or freezer running efficiently with this complete compressor kit. The compressor serves as the heart of the cooling system, pressurizing and circulating refrigerant through the evaporator and condenser coils to maintain consistent internal temperatures. This kit includes all essential components for installation, such as the compressor, start relay, capacitor, filter drier, drain pan, tubing extensions, thermal mastic, and a label. Operating on 100–115 volts at 50/60 Hz and using R134A refrigerant, it’s designed for reliable performance. Replacing the compressor may resolve issues like the appliance not starting, inconsistent cooling, or unusual noises. For safety, always disconnect power before installation and follow proper handling guidelines.

This refrigerator and freezer compressor kit circulates refrigerant through the cooling system to maintain consistent, proper temperatures for food and beverages. Designed to restore cooling performance, it is commonly used to address issues such as poor cooling, unusual noises, or continuous operation.

This is the mechanics (motor/engine) of the cooling system. It kicks in whenever the thermostat demands cooling. ***NOTE: This part needs to be installed by a trained professional in appliance repair. It requires special tools and knowledge to do so.
