Fridge Defrost Element

If the defrost element for your refrigerator has become faulty, don’t fret as eSpares are here to help. The defrost mechanism in a refrigerator heats the cooling element for a short period of time and melts the frost that has formed on it. The resulting water drains through a duct at the back of the unit. With the help of eSpares and this replacement defrost element you can ensure they will be no build-up of ice in your kitchen appliance.

Genuine spare part suitable for select models Whirlpool, Hotpoint and Bauknecht refrigerators.

Please check the suitable model fit list to ensure that this is the correct part for your appliance.

    If you disconnect a faulty element the fridge will usually start and run for several hours until the defrost cycle.

    We do not have this level of information available from the manufacturers but looking at the evaporator it does not look like it is fixed directly to it as on many freezers. Therefore it is likely it will be clipped onto a aluminium tray surrounding the evaporator. If you are unsure you can carry out this repair defrost the freezer and remove the evaporator covers to asses the repair and confirm the heater is faulty. You can then decide if you wish to carry it out yourself or contact another repair agent.
