Kenmore 10644322400 side-by-side refrigerator Parts

For the Kenmore 10644322400 side-by-side refrigerator, the installation guide shows a cabinet width of 36 in (91.5 cm) and a cabinet depth of about 30 1/8 in (76.4 cm) max; height varies by model size and leveling-leg setting. Use the installation guide for the exact fit and clearance callouts.

These are the key measurements shown in the installation documentation (dimensions can vary by model and setup):

• Cabinet width: 36 in (91.5 cm)
• Cabinet depth: about 30 1/8 in (76.4 cm) max (cabinet depth reference)
• Overall height: depends on capacity group and leveling legs
• Door swing clearance: doors should open to at least 150°
• Side-wall clearance (minimum): 13 1/4 in (freezer side) and 16 1/2 in (refrigerator side)

The guide lists different height ranges by “model size” and notes that height is shown with leveling legs at the minimum extension. If the leveling legs are extended further (up to 1 in below the refrigerator), you add 3/4 in (19 mm) to the listed heights.

Refrigerators that are even 1/2 inch too tall or too deep can bind against cabinets, pinch the water line, or prevent the doors from opening fully. Using the documented clearances helps avoid installation issues and airflow restrictions.

• Measure width at the narrowest point of the opening
• Measure height in multiple spots (floors can slope)
• Measure depth to the wall, then account for door swing and handles
• Plan for the water line and power cord routing behind the unit

The Kenmore 10644322400 (often labeled Kenmore Elite) is a 25 cu. ft. class side-by-side refrigerator (about 694 L). For the exact capacity rating for your specific configuration, confirm it in the 10644322400 owner's manual.

The installation guide for model 10644322400 lists a “Model Size 25' (694 L)” option, which is the capacity class used for this refrigerator family.

Capacity numbers can vary depending on how a seller labels the unit (total vs. usable space) or if they are referencing a different Kenmore Elite model family (for example, French door models often have larger published capacities).

Knowing the correct cubic feet helps when you are comparing replacement shelves and bins, planning kitchen clearances, and choosing the right maintenance parts such as the refrigerator water filter.

• If you are matching the filter used in this refrigerator, the manual calls out replacement filter part #9020; on our parts list you will typically see it as genuine Kenmore refrigerator water filter EDR3RXD1.

A Kenmore refrigerator freezer typically lasts 12 to 15 years. For your Kenmore 10644322400 side-by-side refrigerator, keeping airflow clear at the base grille, cleaning the condenser area, and staying on top of water filter and ice maker maintenance helps you reach (and often exceed) that normal lifespan; see the owner's manual for model-specific care guidance.

• Condenser cleanliness and ventilation (dust buildup makes the compressor work harder)
• Door seal condition and door habits (warm air leaks increase run time)
• Stable temperatures (freezer near 0°F, fresh food near 37°F)
• Ice maker and dispenser upkeep (clogs and leaks can create secondary damage)
• Water quality and filter changes (protects the water system and improves flow)

• Vacuum and brush the condenser area and base grille regularly.
• Keep food from blocking interior air vents in both compartments.
• Confirm doors close fully and shelves/bins are not preventing closure.
• Replace the water filter on schedule; a restricted filter can reduce dispenser flow and ice production.
• Level the refrigerator so doors self-close and seals seat evenly.

If your ice production is inconsistent, replacing the whirlpool refrigerator ice maker assembly 2198597 is a common repair on this style of Kenmore side-by-side.

A refrigerator that runs longer than it should uses more electricity and puts extra wear on sealed-system components (compressor, refrigerant lines). Routine cleaning and airflow checks are the easiest way to protect the cooling system and extend service life.

On Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 10644322400, the model number is printed on the model and serial number label located on the inside wall of the refrigerator (fresh food) compartment. Use the complete model and serial number when ordering parts or looking up service information in the owner's manual.

Check these common label locations inside the fresh food section:

• On the inside wall near the top front (often by the ceiling light area)
• On the side wall behind the crisper drawers
• On the side wall near the door opening (hinge side)
• On a wall near the temperature control housing
• On the liner wall near the lower front (above the base grille area)

We recommend recording both numbers exactly as shown on the label:

• Model number (for this unit: 10644322400)
• Serial number
• Purchase or installation date (helpful for your records)

Kenmore refrigerators can have small design changes within the same series. Using the complete model number from the inside-compartment label helps us match the correct parts, such as the refrigerator water filter EDR3RXD1 or the refrigerator ice maker assembly 2198597, and avoid ordering the wrong replacement.

The most common issues we see on Kenmore refrigerators like model 10644322400 are cooling problems, ice maker and water dispenser troubles, water leaks, frost buildup, and unusual noises. Many of these are caused by airflow restrictions, water supply issues, or normal wear on parts and seals; the owner's manual troubleshooting section covers the quickest checks.

• Not cooling or weak cooling: temperature controls not at mid-settings, doors opened often, warm room, dirty condenser area, or fan/compressor issues
• Runs too much: normal with high-efficiency compressors, but also happens with frequent door openings or warm ambient temps
• Noisy operation: buzzing, pulsating, rattling, sizzling, popping can be normal; persistent grinding or squealing points to a fan or motor problem
• Ice maker not working: water supply shutoff closed, kinked water line, frozen fill path, or failed ice maker module
• Water dispenser not working or slow flow: low water pressure (needs at least 30 psi), kinked line, clogged or misinstalled filter
• Water leaking at dispenser: not holding the glass long enough, or the system needs flushing after installation or filter changes

1. Confirm the refrigerator has power (cord plugged in, breaker not tripped).
2. Set both temperature controls to the mid-settings and give initial cool-down time.
3. Make sure doors close fully and vents are not blocked by food packages.
4. For dispenser issues, verify the shutoff valve is open and the water line is not kinked.
5. If a filter is installed, reseat it; a clogged filter can reduce flow.

Catching airflow and water-supply problems early helps protect food temperatures, prevents nuisance leaks, and reduces strain on the compressor and fans (which can make the unit seem like it runs constantly).
