KitchenAid KFCO22EVBL

Model # KFCO22EVBL

The KFCO22EVBL is a US-market KitchenAid refrigerator. It was on KitchenAid’s US product site from December 2013 to October 2017 and gone after that. That places the machine inside that window: discontinued, and now about a decade into service. No published specification for this model was recovered. Rather than fill the gap with a figure borrowed from a similar-looking number, this page says only what the sources actually carry.

KitchenAid appends a two-digit production-revision code to the base number on the rating plate, and the codes actually observed for this model are KFCO22EVBL00, KFCO22EVBL1, KFCO22EVBL2, KFCO22EVBL3, KFCO22EVBL4, KFCO22EVBL5. A plate reading one of those is still a KFCO22EVBL; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. A cabinet of this vintage is past the point where the door seal, the evaporator fan and the defrost components are as-new, and those account for most of what a KFCO22EVBL is called out for. Since the model is discontinued, we settle what can still be supplied for it before the work is quoted.

FAQ

KitchenAid KFCO22EVBL FAQ

The KFCO22EVBL plate is inside the refrigerator, on the left wall, in KitchenAid's own words. It is the adhesive label used across their major appliances, typically silver, and it carries both numbers. A photograph of the KFCO22EVBL label is the most reliable thing you can send us.

The KFCO22EVBL is out of production, and whether repair beats replacement comes down to which component has gone. A seal, a fan or a control is usually straightforward economics; a sealed-system failure on a KFCO22EVBL of this age rarely is, and we will tell you so.

With the refrigerator switched off at its supply, a blocked defrost drain is the usual cause on a KFCO22EVBL rather than a plumbing leak. Meltwater that cannot reach the drain pan backs up onto the cabinet floor and finds its way under the drawers. Clearing the drain on a KFCO22EVBL is routine work.
