Your Kenmore refrigerator’s model number is printed on the appliance identification label. For Kenmore model 79571302011, the label is typically on the right-hand side wall inside the fresh food (refrigerator) compartment; use that exact model number when ordering parts or checking specifications in the 79571302011 owner's manual.

Check these common label locations on Kenmore bottom-mount refrigerators:

• Inside the refrigerator compartment on the right-hand side wall (most common)
• Near the top side wall inside the refrigerator section
• On an inner wall behind or near the crisper drawers (varies by design)
• On the cabinet frame just inside the door opening
• On a side wall inside the freezer compartment (less common)

Record both numbers exactly as shown on the label:

• Model number (example format: 795.7130-k; “k” indicates a color code)
• Serial number
• Date of purchase (helpful for service history and reference)

The model number controls parts compatibility. Even small differences (like a color code or revision) can change which door gasket, ice maker, control board, or drawer rail fits.

Use this to confirm you have the right information before ordering:

• Copy the model number character-for-character, including dots and dashes if present.
• If the label is hard to read, take a clear photo and zoom in.
• Use the model number from the label (not the one on a sales receipt) for the most accurate match.

Most Kenmore refrigerators average 10 to 15 years of service life. For the Kenmore 79571302011 bottom-mount refrigerator, lifespan depends most on airflow, clean condenser coils, and tight door gaskets; consistent maintenance keeps the compressor and fans from running excessively.

• Average: 10 to 15 years
• Common with strong maintenance: 15 to 20 years
• Shortened lifespan drivers: dirty condenser coils, poor door sealing, frequent warm-room operation, heavy door opening

We recommend focusing on these items first because they directly affect run time and temperature stability:

• Clean the condenser coil area regularly (dust buildup is the biggest life-shortener).
• Keep door gaskets clean and flexible; wipe spills and grime off the sealing surface.
• Confirm the doors close fully and stay aligned after loading heavy items.
• Maintain proper air circulation inside; do not block vents with food.
• Keep settings steady; frequent extreme temperature changes increase run time.

For model-specific care and cleaning intervals, follow the 79571302011 owner's manual.

A refrigerator’s most expensive components (like the compressor and fan motors) wear faster when the unit runs hot or runs nearly nonstop. Keeping coils clean and doors sealing properly reduces run time and helps the sealed system last.

Ice on the bottom of the freezer in your Kenmore 79571302011 almost always happens when defrost water cannot drain away; it pools under the evaporator area, runs to the freezer floor, and freezes into a sheet. Clearing the drain path and correcting door sealing issues stops the repeat buildup.

• Defrost drain clogged by ice, food debris, or sludge; water backs up and refreezes.
• Drain tube restricted or misrouted so water cannot flow to the drain pan.
• Door not closing tightly; warm, humid air enters and increases frost and meltwater (the manual notes frequent door opening and warm, humid air can create frost).
• Air vents blocked; restricted airflow can contribute to moisture and temperature problems.
• Gasket not sealing; moisture intrusion increases frost and meltwater.

1. Unplug the refrigerator and remove food from the freezer floor.
2. Melt the ice sheet with towels and a hair dryer on low (keep heat moving; do not overheat plastic).
3. Clear the drain opening (typically under the evaporator cover area) using warm water and a turkey baster.
4. Flush the drain until you hear water flowing freely to the pan underneath.
5. Confirm door closing and alignment; the manual explains adjusting leveling screws so doors close easily.
6. Keep vents clear; the manual warns not to block cool air vents with packages.

If flushing helps only temporarily, a drain component is usually restricted or damaged.

A blocked drain forces water to freeze where it should not; that can jam the freezer drawer, cause leaks during defrost, and make the refrigerator work harder to maintain 0 °F.

Use the 79571302011 owner's manual for door alignment, airflow guidance (Multi-Flow vents), and troubleshooting steps that match your control layout.

Water leaking from the bottom of your Kenmore 79571302011 bottom-mount refrigerator is usually caused by a clogged or frozen defrost drain that overflows during the defrost cycle, or by a water supply connection issue if the unit has an ice maker or dispenser. We focus first on clearing the drain and then checking the inlet valve and tubing.

• Unplug the refrigerator before working inside or behind it.
• Look for ice or debris blocking the defrost drain opening in the freezer section.
• Flush the drain with warm water (a turkey baster works well) until it flows freely.
• Confirm the refrigerator is level so water routes correctly to the drain pan.
• If you have an ice maker, inspect the fill tube and water line for cracks or a loose connection.

The manual notes that water dripping into the defrost drain pan during defrost is normal and should evaporate; a leak happens when water cannot reach the pan or the pan area is getting extra water from a supply line issue. See the 79571302011 owner’s manual for care, cleaning, and troubleshooting sections.

If flushing the drain doesn’t stop the leak, these model-matched parts are common next suspects:

• Refrigerator drain tube 5251JA3003D (helps route defrost water out of the cabinet)
• Refrigerator water inlet valve assembly AJU55759303 (can seep or fail to close fully)
• Refrigerator ice maker fill tube AJU73753101 (can crack, shift, or freeze and overflow)

A recurring bottom leak can lead to ice buildup in the freezer, odors, and floor damage. Fixing the drain path and any waterline seep keeps defrost water going to the drain pan where it can evaporate normally.
