Kenmore 25364802404 refrigerator Parts

In a Kenmore top-mount refrigerator like model 25364802404, the upper section is the freezer compartment. It is designed to keep foods frozen long-term and typically includes freezer shelves or door bins for organizing frozen items (and sometimes ice-making features, depending on the setup in your unit).

• Freezer interior shelves for the most stable temperatures
• Freezer door shelves for smaller, frequently used items
• Space for ice trays or an optional automatic ice maker (if equipped)
• Cold-air circulation paths that help freeze food quickly
• A door gasket that seals in cold air

Our Kenmore guidance for this style of refrigerator is to keep airflow open and load the freezer correctly:

• Leave space between packages so cold air can circulate
• Avoid adding too much warm food at once (it slows freezing)
• Store temperature-sensitive items (like ice cream) in the freezer interior, not the door
• Keep the refrigerator level so doors close tightly
• Use the recommended temperature settings in the 25364802404 owner's manual

Knowing the upper section is the freezer helps with troubleshooting and food storage. Many “freezer not cold enough” complaints come from blocked vents, overpacking, or frequent door opening rather than a failed part.

For Kenmore model 25364802404, the correct water filter depends on whether your refrigerator is actually equipped with a water filtration system and which filter housing it uses. We recommend confirming the filter style and location shown in the 25364802404 owner's manual before ordering so you get an exact fit.

Use these quick checks to match the correct cartridge:

• Look for a filter head or cartridge inside the fresh food compartment (often upper right) or in the base grille.
• Check the existing filter for a printed model number (for example, a 46-#### style number).
• If the filter is missing, look for a filter cap, filter door, or a labeled “Filter” area.
• Confirm whether your unit has an ice maker and water line connection; many non-dispensing top-mount models do not use a filter.
• Match by model number 25364802404 plus the filter’s physical style (push-in, twist-in, or inline).

Using the wrong water filter can cause leaks, poor water flow to the ice maker, or bypass filtration entirely. Matching by the exact refrigerator configuration helps protect the water system and keeps ice and water tasting clean.

If your refrigerator uses a replaceable cartridge, follow the steps in How to replace the water filter in a Kenmore refrigerator to remove the old filter and confirm the correct replacement style.

To replace the water filter in your Kenmore 25364802404, we shut off the ice maker (if equipped), relieve water pressure by dispensing water, then remove the old filter and install the new one fully seated and locked. Finish by flushing several gallons of water.

• Dispense water for 5 to 10 seconds to relieve pressure.
• Open the filter access door or cover (location varies by configuration).
• Turn the old filter counterclockwise (or press the release, depending on the housing) and pull it out.
• Remove the protective caps from the new filter.
• Insert the new filter and turn clockwise until it stops (or push until it clicks/locks).
• Close the access door and check for leaks.

If the filter access door is taped shut, remove the tape carefully so you do not crack the trim. If the door will not open normally, avoid prying hard; instead, access the filter housing from the inside paneling only if the 25364802404 installation guide shows a safe access method for your configuration.

After installing a new filter, we flush the system to clear air and carbon fines.

A properly installed refrigerator water filter protects water flow to the dispenser and ice maker, helps reduce taste and odor issues, and prevents small leaks that can damage shelves, bins, and door liners over time. For model-specific filter location and locking style, follow the 25364802404 owner’s manual.
