The Gasket for the freezer is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It creates a seal around the freezer door, preventing warm air from entering and cold air from escaping. This seal is crucial for maintaining the correct internal temperature, ensuring the freezer operates efficiently and food stays properly frozen. The gasket measures 19 1/2 inches wide by 28 inches tall. Causes of a bad gasket can include wear and tear over time, exposure to extreme temperatures, or damage from frequent opening and closing of the freezer door. Accumulated dirt and grime can also affect the gasket's sealing ability. Symptoms of a bad gasket include: Frost buildup inside the freezer The freezer running more frequently or continuously Higher than normal energy bills Warm spots inside the freezer The door not closing properly or a visible gap between the door and the frame This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.WR24X449 (AP2067922) replaces 300598, AH296972, EA296972, PS296972, WR24X0449, WR24X0460, WR24X460.
