How to tell cubic feet of Kenmore refrigerator by model number?
For Kenmore top-mount refrigerator model 10670192000, the model number alone usually does not state the exact cubic-foot capacity. The most reliable way is to look up the capacity in the 10670192000 owner's manual; if you need a quick estimate, calculate interior volume from measurements.
- Check the manual specs: Look for “capacity” or “cubic feet” in the specifications section of the 10670192000 owner's manual.
- Use the model tag for the full number: The manual notes the model and serial label is inside the refrigerator (shown in the Parts and Features section). Record the full model number before searching specs.
- Estimate by measuring the interior (good for a ballpark): Measure usable interior width, depth, and height in inches, multiply them, then divide by 1728.
- Compare to typical sizes: Many Kenmore 106-series top-mount refrigerators commonly fall in the 18 to 22 cu. ft. range.
- Empty a shelf area so you can measure accurately.
- Measure interior (not exterior) dimensions in inches:
- Width (side wall to side wall)
- Depth (back wall to inside front edge)
- Height (floor to ceiling of the compartment)
- Compute: (W x D x H) ÷ 1728 = cubic feet
| Interior measurement | Inches | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Width | 28 | Measure the usable space |
| Depth | 18 | Exclude door bins |
| Height | 48 | Exclude unusable curves |
| Estimated capacity | 14.0 cu. ft. | (28x18x48)/1728 |
Capacity affects food storage planning, shelf and bin fit, and whether replacement items (like a crisper pan) match what your refrigerator can actually hold.

Who makes Kenmore refrigerator model 10670192000?
Kenmore model 10670192000 is a Kenmore refrigerator built for Sears under the 106 model prefix, which is commonly associated with Whirlpool-manufactured Kenmore refrigerators. For model-specific identification details (model and serial label location and service info), use the 10670192000 owner's manual.
You can verify what you have in minutes by checking the model and serial number label on the refrigerator.
- Open the fresh food (refrigerator) door and look for the model/serial label inside the cabinet
- Confirm the full model number is 10670192000 (not just “106.”)
- Write down the serial number as well (helpful for parts lookups and service)
- Match the model number exactly when ordering parts like a door gasket or ice maker
- Keep the information with your purchase records for faster service
Kenmore used different 3-digit prefixes to indicate the original manufacturer behind the Kenmore brand. The 106 prefix is widely recognized as a Whirlpool source for many Kenmore refrigerators.
| What you see | What it typically indicates | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Model starts with 106 | Whirlpool-built Kenmore platform | Parts and design often align with Whirlpool-style components |
| Model/serial label present | Exact unit identification | Prevents ordering the wrong gasket, thermostat, or ice maker |
Knowing the platform behind your Kenmore refrigerator helps you choose compatible replacement parts and troubleshoot more efficiently.
Common examples on this model page include:
- Ice maker assembly - refrigerator ice maker by whirlpool 4317943 for no-ice or small-cube complaints
- Door sealing parts such as 2159061 (refrigerator door gasket) and 2159060 (freezer door gasket)
- Cooling and defrost components like WP4387503 (defrost bi-metal) and WP2163777 (fan blade)

What is the top part of a fridge called?
On a Kenmore 10670192000 top-mount refrigerator, the top compartment is the freezer compartment (often just called the freezer). It is the section designed to keep foods frozen and it also supplies cold air that helps cool the fresh food section below; see the 10670192000 owner's manual.
In a top-mount design, the freezer is more than storage for frozen food. It also plays a key role in cooling the refrigerator section.
- Cold air enters through the bottom of the freezer and moves upward
- Some air recirculates within the freezer
- Some air flows into the refrigerator section through the top vent
- Blocking vents can cause temperature and moisture problems
- Odors can transfer between sections because air circulates between them
| What people say | Common name | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| “Top part of the fridge” | Freezer compartment | Upper section that freezes food |
| “Bottom part” | Refrigerator (fresh food) compartment | Lower section that keeps food cold, not frozen |
| “Ice maker area” | Freezer ice maker zone | Where an optional/installed ice maker typically sits |
Knowing the top section is the freezer helps with troubleshooting. For example, if the refrigerator section is warm but the freezer is cold, we focus on airflow issues (vents, fan, frost buildup) rather than the temperature control alone.
If you are asking because ice production or freezing performance is the issue, these model-compatible parts are commonly involved:
- Ice maker assembly - refrigerator ice maker by whirlpool 4317943 (ice production)
- Refrigerator inlet valve WP2315576 (water supply to ice maker)
- Fan blade WP2163777 (air movement through compartments)
