Samsung RH22H9010SR/AA-08 refrigerator Parts

For the Samsung RH22H9010SR side-by-side refrigerator, the overall size is typically about 35 3/4 inches wide and about 70 inches tall, with depth varying based on whether handles and hinges are included. For the exact configuration measurements for your kitchen cutout, use the RH22H9010SR owner's manual.

Dimensions by configuration

Refrigerator dimensions are commonly listed in three ways because handles and hinges change the depth and height you need to plan for.

Measurement style	What it includes	Best used for
With hinges, handles, and doors	Full installed footprint	Checking walkway clearance and door swing
With hinges and doors (no handles)	Installed footprint without handle projection	Tight depth situations
Without hinges and doors	Cabinet box only	Moving the unit through doorways

What to measure before you buy or move it

We recommend measuring both the refrigerator and the path to the installation spot.

• Measure the opening width at the front and back (walls are often not perfectly square).
• Measure height to the lowest cabinet or soffit.
• Measure depth to the front edge of surrounding cabinets (note countertop overhang).
• Confirm clearance for door swing and drawer pull-out.
• Measure the narrowest doorway and hallway turns for delivery.

Why it matters

A side-by-side like the RH22H9010SR can fit the opening width but still run into problems with depth (handles) or height (hinges). Using the correct “with/without handles and hinges” dimension prevents installation delays and helps maintain proper airflow around the compressor and condenser area.

For Samsung side-by-side refrigerators like model RH22H9010SR, the most common customer-reported issues are ice maker problems (no ice, clumping, freezing up) and cooling/airflow problems (warm fresh food section, frost buildup, noisy fans). These symptoms usually trace back to airflow restrictions, ice buildup, or a failing fan or control component.

Most common symptoms we see

• Ice maker stops producing ice or produces small/hollow cubes
• Ice clumps in the bin or the ice chute door sticks
• Fresh food section warms up while the freezer seems OK
• Frost or ice buildup on the back wall or around vents
• Fan noise, clicking, or intermittent cooling

Quick checks before replacing parts

1. Confirm temperatures: set freezer near 0°F and refrigerator near 37°F (typical targets).
2. Check airflow: make sure vents are not blocked by food packages.
3. Look for frost patterns: heavy frost often points to a defrost or airflow issue.
4. Inspect the door seal: gaps can cause moisture intrusion and frost.
5. Reset and recheck: after adjustments, allow 24 hours for temperatures to stabilize.

Parts that commonly relate to these problems (when symptoms match)

Symptom	Common area involved	Example part for RH22H9010SR
No ice or slow ice	Water supply and filtration	Refrigerator water filter DA29-00020B
Warm temps or fan noise	Condenser cooling and airflow	Refrigerator condenser fan motor assembly DA97-15765C
Intermittent cooling or odd behavior	Controls and power management	Refrigerator power control board DA92-00486A

Why it matters

Ice maker and cooling issues can quickly lead to food spoilage, water leaks, and extra strain on the sealed system. Catching airflow and frost problems early often prevents bigger repairs.

Helpful model-specific resources

• Use the RH22H9010SR owner's manual for control settings, recommended temperatures, and feature operation.
• If you see a code on the display, use Samsung rh22 and rh29 models side by side refrigerator error codes to narrow the failure to a specific circuit or sensor.

If your Samsung RH22H9010SR refrigerator is running but not cooling, the most common causes are restricted airflow (blocked vents or frosted evaporator), dirty condenser area, or a failed fan or control component. Start with a reset and airflow checks before moving to parts testing. See the RH22H9010SR owner's manual for model-specific control and reset steps.

Quick checks we recommend first

• Confirm the unit is not in Demo (Cooling Off) mode.
• Make sure food packages are not blocking air vents in either compartment.
• Check that both doors close fully and the gaskets seal all the way around.
• Set temperatures to typical targets: 37°F fresh food and 0°F freezer.
• Listen for fans: you should typically hear airflow when the doors are closed.

What “running” usually means (and what it points to)

When customers say the refrigerator is “running,” they often mean the interior lights are on and they hear some noise. Cooling still depends on airflow and heat removal.

What you notice	Most likely area to check	Common next step
Freezer cold, fridge warm	Airflow/damper issue	Inspect the air passages; consider the air damper assembly
Both sections warm, compressor runs	Condenser airflow or sealed system	Clean condenser area; verify condenser fan operation
Frost/ice buildup on back wall	Defrost system/evaporator airflow	Manually defrost 24 hours; then recheck cooling
Clicking, then stops cooling	Start device/overload	Inspect start components and wiring

Parts that commonly affect cooling on this model

If basic checks do not restore cooling, these parts are frequent suspects:

• Refrigerator condenser fan motor assembly DA97-15765C (moves air across the condenser to dump heat)
• Samsung refrigerator air damper control assembly DA97-13749D (controls cold air flow into the fresh-food section)
• Refrigerator power control board DA92-00486A (manages power and cooling functions)
• Samsung refrigerator compressor MKV190CL2BASH (sealed-system component; typically requires professional service)

Why it matters

Running without cooling can lead to unsafe food temperatures and can also overwork the compressor. Catching airflow problems early (blocked vents, frosted coils, failed fan) often prevents bigger repairs.

Helpful DIY guidance

• Use our why your Samsung fridge stopped making ice and how to fix it article if cooling issues are also affecting ice production.
• If the display shows an error, use Samsung rh22 and rh29 models side by side refrigerator error codes to narrow the failure to a fan, sensor, or defrost-related problem.
