Kenmore 10670939900 refrigerator Parts

The Kenmore refrigerator model 10670939900 is about 21.9 cubic feet total capacity. For the most accurate confirmation for your exact configuration (shelves, ice maker, and bins), we recommend checking the specifications section in the 10670939900 owner's manual.

Quick capacity details

Refrigerator capacity is typically listed as total volume (fresh food plus freezer). On top-mount models like Kenmore 10670939900, the total is usually split between the refrigerator compartment and the freezer compartment.

• Total capacity: 21.9 cu. ft.
• Includes both compartments (refrigerator + freezer)
• Usable space can vary based on installed accessories (ice maker, bins, shelves)
• Door storage and crisper drawers count toward total volume

Why your “usable space” can feel smaller

Even when the total cubic feet stays the same, a few common parts and settings affect how much you can actually fit.

• An installed ice maker reduces freezer shelf space
• A bulky door bin can limit tall-item placement
• Frost buildup can reduce airflow and storage room
• Overpacking blocks vents and causes warm spots
• Misaligned doors can cause temperature swings that affect food storage

Common items that change interior layout

Feature or part	What it changes	Where it matters most
Ice maker assembly	Takes up freezer volume	Freezer
Door bins	Adds door storage, can crowd main shelves	Refrigerator door
Crisper drawer	Improves produce storage, uses lower space	Refrigerator bottom
Glass shelf	Adjusts height for tall items	Refrigerator

If you are adding or replacing an ice maker, match the correct assembly for this model, such as the refrigerator ice maker 4317943.

Why it matters

Knowing the cubic feet helps when you are comparing replacement refrigerators, planning kitchen space, or deciding whether storage issues are caused by layout (bins, shelves, ice maker) versus a cooling problem.

Kenmore model numbers are read left to right; the first 3 digits identify the manufacturer (for example, 106 indicates a Whirlpool-built Kenmore), and the remaining digits identify the specific design and feature variations. For your refrigerator, 10670939900 is the full model number to use when ordering parts and checking specs in the 10670939900 owner's manual.

Where to find the model number on a Kenmore refrigerator

Most Kenmore top-mount refrigerators place the model and serial label in one of these spots:

• Inside the fresh food compartment on a side wall
• On the ceiling of the fresh food compartment near the light
• Behind the crisper drawers on an interior wall
• On the cabinet frame near the door hinge area
• On the back of the refrigerator cabinet

How to decode a Kenmore model number (quick guide)

Here is the basic structure we use for Kenmore model numbers:

Section	Example	What it tells you
Prefix (first 3 digits)	106	Who manufactured the appliance for Kenmore
Base model + variation	70939900	Series, configuration, and feature set

Why it matters when ordering parts

Using the complete model number helps us match the correct parts list for your exact refrigerator configuration. That matters most for parts that vary by revision, such as:

• Ice maker assemblies (example: refrigerator ice maker 4317943)
• Water system parts (example: refrigerator inlet valve WP2315576)
• Cooling system components (example: refrigerator evaporator fan motor WP2315539)
• Door and bin parts (example: refrigerator door bin WPW10172187)

Tips to avoid common model-number mistakes

• Use all digits, including any trailing zeros
• Copy the number from the appliance label, not the sales receipt
• Do not use the serial number in place of the model number
• Match letters and numbers exactly if your label includes letters

Why it matters

Kenmore model numbers are the fastest way to identify the correct manufacturer design and the exact parts diagram for your refrigerator, which prevents ordering the wrong ice maker, thermostat, or door components.

Most Kenmore refrigerators average 10 to 15 years of service life; with consistent maintenance and timely repairs, many units can reach 15 to 20 years. For your Kenmore 10670939900 top-mount refrigerator, following the care and operating guidance in the 10670939900 owner's manual helps maximize lifespan.

What affects refrigerator lifespan the most

A refrigerator’s life is usually determined by heat management, door sealing, and how hard the sealed system has to work.

• Keep airflow clear inside the fresh food and freezer sections (don’t block vents)
• Keep doors closing tightly and level; correct sagging doors and alignment issues
• Clean dust from the condenser area regularly so the compressor runs cooler
• Fix water leaks and ice maker fill issues quickly to prevent corrosion and icing
• Address unusual noises early (fan motors and defrost issues often get worse over time)

Typical lifespan by usage and maintenance

Condition	Typical lifespan	What you’ll notice
Light use, good cleaning, doors seal well	15 to 20 years	Stable temps, fewer long run times
Average household use	10 to 15 years	Normal wear items start failing
Heavy use, dirty condenser, poor door seal	7 to 12 years	Warm temps, frequent cycling, noise

Parts that commonly impact longevity on this model

When these parts wear out, the refrigerator often still has years left if you repair it promptly.

• Evaporator fan motor: if it slows or gets noisy, cooling becomes uneven (see refrigerator evaporator fan motor WP2315539)
• Defrost system components: failures can cause frost buildup and warm temps (example: refrigerator defrost bi-metal WPW10225581)
• Water inlet valve and tubing (if equipped with ice maker): leaks or low fill can create icing and water damage
• Door gaskets and door alignment hardware: poor sealing forces longer run times

Why it matters

A refrigerator that runs hotter or longer than normal wears the compressor and fans faster, increases energy use, and can lead to food temperature swings. Basic upkeep and quick fixes typically add years to a Kenmore top-mount refrigerator’s life.
