Kenmore 79573052410 refrigerator Parts

Kenmore refrigerator model 79573052410 is a bottom-freezer style unit; most refrigerators in this class are about 33 inches wide, 30 to 34 inches deep, and 67 to 70 inches tall. For the exact dimensions and clearance requirements for your specific configuration, use the 79573052410 use and care guide.

Typical dimensions and what affects them

Even within the same model family, the installed size can vary based on doors, handles, and how you measure depth.

• Width is usually measured cabinet-to-cabinet (doors closed)
• Height can change if the leveling legs are adjusted
• Depth varies most depending on whether you include handles
• Clearance behind and above the refrigerator affects airflow and performance
• Door swing clearance matters for full drawer and bin access

How to measure your refrigerator accurately

We recommend measuring in three places (top, middle, bottom) and using the largest number.

1. Width: left cabinet edge to right cabinet edge
2. Height: floor to top of hinge cover (or top of cabinet if hinge cover is removable)
3. Depth: back of cabinet to front edge of door (measure again to the front of the handle if you need “depth with handle”)

Quick reference: common size ranges

Measurement	Typical range for this style	Notes
Width	32 to 34 in.	Often listed as “33-inch class”
Height	67 to 70 in.	Can vary with leveling and hinge cover
Depth	30 to 34 in.	Biggest swing is “with handle” vs “without handle”

Why it matters

Correct dimensions help you avoid fit issues in a cabinet opening, prevent door and freezer drawer interference, and maintain proper airflow so the compressor and condenser system can cool efficiently.

Water leaking from the bottom of your Kenmore 79573052410 bottom-mount refrigerator is typically caused by a clogged or frozen defrost drain, an overflowing or shifted drain pan, or a slow drip from the water supply line or valve. Start by checking the defrost drain path, then inspect water connections.

Most common causes

• Defrost drain clogged: Meltwater backs up and spills into the cabinet, then runs to the floor.
• Drain tube frozen: Ice blocks the drain after warm air enters or airflow is restricted.
• Drain pan problem: Pan is cracked, out of position, or overflowing due to restricted drainage.
• Water supply drip: A loose fitting or seeping valve can drip and track down to the base.
• Ice bin meltwater: If the icemaker is Off for hours, melting ice can create water that ends up below.

What to do (in order)

1. Unplug the refrigerator.
2. Locate the defrost drain opening at the back bottom inside the fresh food section.
3. Flush the drain with warm water until it flows freely.
4. Clear the tube gently with a flexible pipe cleaner.
5. Pull the unit out and check the drain pan for cracks and proper placement.
6. If connected to water, inspect the shutoff valve, tubing, and fittings for drips.

Quick symptom guide

Where the puddle shows up	Likely source	Best first step
Front center	Defrost drain backup	Flush and clear drain
Back near wall	Water line or valve	Check fittings for drips
Under freezer area	Drain pan overflow	Clear drain, verify pan

Why it matters

Stopping a small leak early prevents floor damage and helps avoid repeat icing and drainage problems that can affect cooling.
