KitchenAid KSRS22FGSS

Model # KSRS22FGSS

The KSRS22FGSS is one of the KitchenAid refrigerators, recorded by its source as a side-by-side refrigerator of 21.6 cu. ft. It appears on KitchenAid’s US product site in January 2000 and nowhere after that. That dates the machine to around then: discontinued, and now around a quarter of a century old. Nothing beyond what that source states is claimed here, and no figure has been carried across from a neighbouring model number.

At this age the work on a KSRS22FGSS is mostly mechanical and electrical rather than electronic — seals, fans, defrost components, switches and the start device. Those are the parts still in circulation for cabinets of this generation, and they are what we check availability on before any figure is put on a repair.

Most Common Issues on This Model

01

Shelf and bin breakages, which on a discontinued model are worth chasing early

02

Door gasket hardened with age, so the seal no longer pulls the door tight against the cabinet

03

Temperature sensing wandered out of calibration with age, giving a cabinet that never settles

04

Water supply faults - valve, line or filter housing - on machines plumbed for water

FAQ

KitchenAid KSRS22FGSS FAQ

Inside the refrigerator, on the left wall is where KitchenAid says the label is, and that holds for the KSRS22FGSS. The adhesive label there gives model and serial. Copying the KSRS22FGSS string character by character is worth the extra minute, since one letter separates several different cabinets.

The KSRS22FGSS is discontinued, but age alone does not decide it. Most of what fails on a KSRS22FGSS is a wear component priced in tens of dollars rather than hundreds, and those repairs stay worthwhile. The exception is the sealed system, where the cost sits close to what the cabinet is worth, and we check the parts position before quoting either way.

With the refrigerator switched off at its supply, leaving the KSRS22FGSS propped open to the air is sensible if it is no longer holding temperature, because a closed cabinet that is not cooling grows mould quickly. Food safety comes first on a KSRS22FGSS as on anything else, and anything that has sat above a safe temperature for hours should go in the bin.
