LG LMXS28626S/01 bottom-mount refrigerator Parts

No. Refrigerator widths vary by style and capacity. For the LG LMXS28626S, the owner’s manual lists the cabinet width as 35 3/4 inches, which is close to 36 inches but not exactly 36. See the exact dimensions in the LMXS28626S owner’s manual.

Here are the key size points we use when planning fit and door swing:

• Width: 35 3/4 in (908 mm)
• Front clearance to open doors: 24 in (610 mm)
• Back clearance to wall: 2 in (50.8 mm)
• Depth with handle: 36 1/4 in (921 mm)
• Depth without handle: 33 3/4 in (857 mm)

Not all refrigerators are “36-inch” models. Width depends on the refrigerator type.

• Compact and apartment-size units are often narrower
• Many top-freezer and bottom-freezer models fall in the mid-width range
• Side-by-side and French door models commonly approach 36 inches
• Built-in and specialty models can be wider (or sometimes narrower)

A difference of even 1/4 inch can prevent a refrigerator from fitting between cabinets or through a doorway. For the LMXS28626S, using the manual’s listed width and required clearances helps avoid installation problems and door-swing interference.

On the LG LMXS28626S bottom-mount refrigerator, the most common “problem” customers report is uneven cooling: the fresh food section warms up while the freezer stays cold. We typically trace that to restricted airflow, a fan issue, or a temperature-sensing/control problem; see the troubleshooting section in the LMXS28626S owner’s manual.

• Confirm the control settings are reasonable (typical targets are about 37°F for the refrigerator and 0°F for the freezer).
• Make sure vents inside the refrigerator are not blocked by food packages.
• Check that doors close fully and gaskets seal all the way around.
• Look for heavy frost on the freezer back wall (often points to an airflow or defrost issue).
• Listen for the evaporator fan running when the doors are closed.

Uneven cooling usually comes from one of these areas:

• Airflow restriction: overpacked shelves, blocked return vents, or frost buildup.
• Evaporator fan problem: weak or stopped fan reduces cold air movement to the fresh food section.
• Temperature sensing/control: a bad sensor can cause incorrect cycling and temperature swings.
• Condenser-side heat removal: dirty coils or a failing condenser fan can reduce overall cooling.

When the refrigerator section warms up, food safety and freshness are affected first. Catching airflow or fan issues early can prevent longer run times, excess frost, and more expensive sealed-system stress.
