Kenmore 1065721200 freezer Parts

To find the cubic feet (capacity) of your Kenmore upright freezer model 1065721200, measure the usable interior space and calculate volume: (length × width × height in inches) ÷ 1,728. This gives capacity in cubic feet.

Use a tape measure and measure the inside of the cabinet (not the door).

• Unplug the freezer and remove baskets or shelves that block measuring
• Measure width (left wall to right wall)
• Measure depth (back wall to inside front edge, not including the door gasket)
• Measure height (floor of the liner to the underside of the top liner)
• Round to the nearest 1/8 inch for best accuracy

If the interior measures 24 in wide × 20 in deep × 60 in high:

Manufacturers often list “usable” capacity, but real-world storage can be slightly less because shelves, bins, the evaporator cover, and air channels take up space.

• Calculated interior volume: what you measure and compute
• Listed capacity: a standardized rating that may not match your exact measurements
• Usable storage: what you can actually load while still allowing airflow

Knowing cubic feet helps us choose the right replacement shelves and storage layout, compare freezer sizes, and avoid overpacking (which can restrict airflow and cause temperature swings or frost buildup).

On a Kenmore upright freezer like model 1065721200, the model number is printed on a rating label inside the cabinet or on the exterior cabinet. Check the inside side wall first, then the ceiling area, and then the back of the unit.

• Inside the freezer on a side wall (often near the front opening)
• Inside the freezer on the ceiling area
• Behind the lower kick plate or toe grille (if your freezer has one)
• On the back exterior panel of the cabinet
• Along the door frame area (open the door and look around the perimeter)

1. Open the door and scan the inside side walls at eye level.
2. Look up at the inside ceiling panel.
3. If you do not see it, pull the freezer slightly forward and check the back.
4. If there is a kick plate, remove it and look for a label behind it.

The model number is the fastest way to match the correct Kenmore freezer parts and diagrams. Even small model number differences can change door parts, controls, or the defrost system.

A Kenmore upright freezer like model 1065721200 typically lasts 12 to 16 years with normal home use and basic maintenance. Keeping the door sealing tightly, the condenser area clean, and frost under control helps you reach the high end of that range.

Most lifespan differences come down to heat load, airflow, and door sealing.

• Room temperature and ventilation around the cabinet
• Door gasket condition and how often the door is opened
• Frost buildup on the evaporator (reduces cooling efficiency)
• Condenser cleanliness (dust makes the compressor run longer)
• Power quality and outage frequency

These steps reduce compressor run time and temperature swings.

• Keep the freezer at 0°F for food safety and stable operation
• Leave space around the freezer for airflow (especially at the back)
• Defrost when frost gets thick enough to reduce storage space or airflow
• Clean dust from the condenser area periodically
• Check for air leaks; reseal small cabinet gaps with Sears refrigerator permagum sealer 212643 when appropriate

If you are deciding whether to repair or replace, these are common warning signs.

A freezer that runs longer than necessary costs more to operate and can struggle to hold safe temperatures. Simple sealing and airflow improvements often prevent premature compressor wear.
