The SH207 Genuine OEM Universal Refrigerator Defrost Heater is a high-quality universal replacement heating element designed for refrigerator and freezer defrost systems. This refrigerator component is responsible for melting frost and ice that naturally accumulate on the evaporator coils during normal operation. Built with durable aluminium construction and engineered for reliable performance, the SH207 helps restore proper cooling efficiency and prevents excessive frost buildup that can impact refrigerator operation. Available from Appliance Kingdom with fast Canada-wide shipping, this replacement part is suitable for homeowners, landlords, and professional appliance repair technicians. The SH207 is commonly used to resolve frost accumulation, temperature inconsistencies, and defrost system failures in refrigerators and freezers.

What Does the Refrigerator Defrost Heater Do?

The defrost heater is a critical component within a refrigerator's automatic defrost system. During scheduled defrost cycles, the heater warms the evaporator coils, melting accumulated frost and ice before it can restrict airflow.

When the defrost heater operates correctly, the refrigerator maintains proper airflow, efficient cooling, and stable temperatures throughout both the fresh food and freezer compartments. A failed heater can allow excessive ice buildup on the evaporator, reducing cooling performance and forcing the appliance to run longer than normal.

The SH207 features approximately 86 inches of heated length, operates at 115 volts and 110 watts, and utilizes durable aluminium construction for dependable heat transfer and longevity.

Common Symptoms Indicating Replacement

A faulty refrigerator defrost heater can cause several noticeable issues, including:

• Frost buildup on evaporator coils
• Excessive ice accumulation inside the freezer
• Refrigerator compartment too warm
• Freezer compartment too warm
• Refrigerator running continuously or longer than normal
• Reduced airflow from vents
• Cooling performance deterioration
• Food not staying at proper temperatures
• Defrost cycle failures

If your refrigerator is experiencing these symptoms and diagnostics confirm a failed heater, replacing the defrost heater can often restore proper operation. However, similar symptoms may also be caused by a defective defrost thermostat, sensor, timer, or electronic control board, so proper diagnosis is recommended.

Compatibility Guidance

The SH207 is designed for use as a universal refrigerator defrost heater.

Before ordering:

• Verify your refrigerator model number.
• Confirm the heater specifications match your appliance requirements.
• Compare voltage, wattage, and physical dimensions with the original component.
• Contact Appliance Kingdom for compatibility assistance if needed.

Proper model verification helps ensure successful installation and reliable performance.
