Part 820670P is the genuine Fisher \u0026amp; Paykel defrost element, also listed as 819088P, for the E210L, RF210L, RF210R and RF210F fridges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrost build-up in your Fisher \u0026amp; Paykel fridge\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrost-free fridges collect frost on the evaporator coil as they cool. At set intervals the defrost heater switches on and melts it away, and the water drains out to the evaporating tray. If the heater burns out, frost keeps growing until it chokes the coil and blocks the air flow. The freezer may stay cold at first while the fresh food section warms, then both lose temperature. You might also hear the fan scraping ice or see water leaking when the build-up eventually melts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Fisher \u0026amp; Paykel part 820670P\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlso listed as 819088P\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDefrost heater element for frost-free fridges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuits E210L, RF210L, RF210R and RF210F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eReplacing the defrost heater\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnplug the fridge, move the food into an esky and let the ice on the evaporator melt fully, using towels to catch the water.
