H0060248296A Genuine Freezer Air Duct for Haier and Fisher & Paykel Fridge Freezers

H0060248296A is the genuine Haier freezer air duct, from the parts range shared by Haier and Fisher & Paykel. It carries cold air from the fan through the freezer so the compartment cools evenly. The description doesn't list any extra parts with the duct, and no compatible models are recorded yet, so confirm the number on your old duct or your fridge's parts diagram before buying.

Uneven cooling or ice around the freezer vents

In a frost free fridge freezer, a fan moves air over the evaporator and the duct sends that cold air to the right places. A duct that's cracked, warped or out of position lets the air take a shortcut, so some shelves run warm while others over freeze. Damage often happens when built up ice is chipped away with a sharp tool or the duct is forced out during cleaning. Ice forming around the duct, a fan that scrapes, and food thawing in one corner are the common signs.

Fitting the freezer duct

Unplug the fridge freezer, move the frozen food to an esky and remove the drawers and shelves. If there's ice, let it melt naturally with the door open and towels down. Note any wiring or sensors attached to the old duct, release its screws or clips, and transfer anything attached to the new duct. Refit, then let the freezer run for several hours before reloading.

Questions about this part

Will this fix a freezer that isn't cold?

Only if the duct is the problem. A warm freezer can also come from a stopped fan, a blocked or iced evaporator, a faulty defrost system or a door that isn't sealing. Inspect the duct for cracks or gaps first, and check the fan runs when the compressor is on.
