Quick Overview
The Frigidaire 242094802 Defrost Heater is a thermal component used in refrigerators to remove frost that forms on the evaporator coil during normal cooling operation. It generates heat during the defrost cycle, melting accumulated frost so water can drain away through the appliance's drainage system. Positioned beneath or around the evaporator assembly, the heater supports unrestricted airflow across the cooling components. Its role within the refrigeration system is to control frost buildup, allowing the evaporator to operate efficiently and maintain consistent cooling throughout the refrigerator and freezer compartments.
