Whirlpool WPW10655367 Drip Pan for Refrigerator

The Whirlpool WPW10655367 refrigerator drip pan is a replacement part designed specifically for Whirlpool refrigerators. This small plastic tray is located at the bottom back of the appliance. During the automatic defrost cycle, condensation or frost melts and collects in the drain pan. The pan is designed to gather this moisture and channel it through a small drain tube that exits the appliance, preventing water from accumulating inside the refrigerator. This helps to mitigate issues such as leaks, mold growth, and unpleasant odors. While the pan may evaporate some water depending on environmental conditions, it is primarily intended to be emptied periodically. Maintaining a functional drain pan is important for preserving cleanliness and hygiene within the refrigerator.
