Kenmore Elite 79572069313 refrigerator Parts

Most Kenmore Elite refrigerators, including model 79572069313, typically last 10 to 15 years with normal household use. With consistent maintenance and stable operating conditions, it is common to reach the upper end of that range; major sealed-system failures can shorten it.

Typical lifespan ranges

Appliance type	Typical lifespan	What usually ends service life
Kenmore Elite refrigerator	10 to 15 years	Compressor or sealed-system repair cost
Refrigerator water/air filtration components	Months, not years	Reduced flow, odors, taste issues

What helps your refrigerator reach 15 years

• Keep condenser airflow clear; vacuum dust from the grille area and surrounding vents.
• Maintain good door sealing; close doors fully and avoid overloading door bins.
• Replace filtration on schedule to protect water flow and reduce odors.
• Keep temperatures steady (avoid frequent warm-ups from long door openings).
• Level the refrigerator so doors self-close and seals seat evenly.

Parts that affect performance as the unit ages

These parts do not set the refrigerator’s “lifespan” by themselves, but they strongly influence day-to-day cooling, ice, and water performance:

• Water quality and flow: genuine Kenmore refrigerator water filter 9690 AGF80300801
• Odor control and airflow: lg refrigerator air filter ADQ73214408
• Core cooling system: compressor, evaporator, condenser coil

Why it matters

Knowing the 10 to 15 year average helps us decide whether a repair is a smart investment. If the refrigerator is near the end of that range and needs a high-cost cooling-system repair (compressor, evaporator, condenser coil), many homeowners choose targeted maintenance or selective part replacement instead.

For model-specific care and maintenance intervals, follow the owner's manual.

Kenmore Elite refrigerator model 79572069313 is a full-size French door refrigerator; most units in this Kenmore 795 series are about 33 inches wide, 31 to 34 inches deep (depth varies with handles), and about 68 inches tall. For the exact dimensions for your configuration, use the owner's manual.

How to measure your refrigerator (so you get the right fit)

Measure in inches with the doors closed.

• Width: left to right at the widest point (often the door edges)
• Height: floor to top of hinge cover (not the cabinet only)
• Depth (cabinet only): back to front of cabinet, excluding handles
• Depth (with handles): back to front including handles
• Clearance: add space for door swing and airflow behind the unit

Typical size ranges you will see for this model family

These ranges help when planning a move, a cabinet opening, or a replacement.

Measurement	Typical range	What changes it most
Width	32.75 to 33.5 in.	Door design and trim
Height	67 to 70 in.	Leveling legs, hinge cover
Depth	31 to 36 in.	Handles, door thickness

Why it matters

Correct sizing prevents installation headaches like doors hitting walls, drawers not clearing, or poor airflow that can cause warm temperatures and compressor strain.

Quick fit checklist before you buy or move it

• Confirm the cabinet opening width and height
• Check depth to the counter edge if you want a flush look
• Allow at least 1 inch behind for water line and ventilation
• Verify the door swing path and drawer pull-out clearance
• Plan for the water line if you use the dispenser or ice maker

Your Kenmore Elite refrigerator model 79572069313 has a 30.6 cubic foot total capacity. This number describes the combined usable storage space of the fresh food section and freezer, and it helps you compare size, storage layout, and replacement fit.

Where to confirm the exact capacity for your model

The most reliable place to verify capacity and other specs for 79572069313 is the product documentation.

• Check the specifications section in the 79572069313 owner's manual
• Look for the model and capacity on the rating label (often inside the fresh food compartment)
• Compare capacity with your shelf and bin layout if you are planning storage changes

Why cubic feet matters

Capacity affects more than just how much food fits.

• Helps you compare standard-depth vs. counter-depth storage space
• Impacts how quickly the refrigerator recovers temperature after door openings
• Guides expectations for ice production and freezer storage volume
• Helps when shopping for replacement bins, drawers, and door storage

Quick reference

Spec	What it means	What to use it for
30.6 cu. ft.	Total refrigerator + freezer capacity	Comparing overall size and storage
Fresh food vs. freezer split	How the space is divided	Meal prep, frozen storage planning
Shelf/bin configuration	How usable the space feels	Replacing bins and organizing

Yes. For Kenmore Elite refrigerator model 79572069313, the most reliable reset is a hard reset: disconnect power for about 5 minutes, then restore power and allow the control board to reboot. Use the 79572069313 owner's manual for the exact control-panel reset steps for your specific symptom.

Reset options that work most often

• Hard reset (recommended first): Unplug the refrigerator or switch OFF the circuit breaker for ~5 minutes, then restore power.
• Control-panel reset: Some functions (like indicator lights) reset by pressing and holding a specific key or key combination.
• Filter indicator reset: If the “change filter” light is on, reset the filter status after replacing the filter.
• Ice maker or dispenser recovery: After a reset, allow time for the ice maker to cycle and the dispenser to purge air.

Step-by-step: hard reset (safe for most issues)

1. Unplug the refrigerator (or turn the breaker OFF).
2. Wait 5 minutes.
3. Restore power.
4. Wait 10 to 15 minutes for the control to stabilize.
5. Confirm cooling resumes; full temperature recovery can take up to 24 hours.

If you are resetting the filter light

If you replaced the water filter, install the correct filter and then reset the indicator.

What you did	What to expect next	What to do if it does not clear
Replaced filter	Light clears after the correct button hold	Repeat the reset sequence from the manual
Did not replace filter	Light may return quickly	Replace the filter, then reset

For this model, the commonly used replacement is the genuine Kenmore refrigerator water filter 9690 AGF80300801.

Why it matters

A reset clears temporary control glitches after a power outage, door-left-open event, or dispenser interruption. It does not fix underlying problems like restricted airflow, a failed sensor, or a cooling-system issue.

When a reset is not enough (quick checks)

• Make sure doors fully close and gaskets seal.
• Confirm vents inside the fresh food section are not blocked.
• If temperatures are warm, listen for the evaporator fan and compressor operation.
• If an error code is showing, use the Kenmore 795 model bottom freezer refrigerator error codes guide to identify the failure area.
