THEORY OF OPERATION

MULLION AND STILE HEATERS

All refrigerators have a tendency to sweat around the door openings due to the differences between
the ambient room temperature and the cold compartments of the refrigerator.  On “Old Design” units
low-wattage resistance heaters are installed to the front flange area of the cabinet to help prevent
sweating.

Stile Heaters

Stile heaters are foil-wrapped resistance-type heating elements in the 5 - 30 watt range.  These
heating elements fit on the inside of the cabinet flange across the top of the freezer and about 1/3
of the way down both sides. 

(Fig. 22)

Stile heaters are on 100% of the time the
refrigerator is plugged in, except during
the defrost cycle, or on models with power
saver switches.  See the wiring diagrams
for units with stile heaters at the end of this
section.

Mullion Heaters

Mullion heaters are foil-wrapped resistance-
type heating elements in the 8 - 12 watt range.
These heating elements fit on the inside of the
rail that separates the refrigerator and freezer
sections. 

(Fig. 23)

The mullion heater element is normally wired
in parallel with the stile heater element.  It is on
100% of the time the refrigerator is plugged in,
except during the defrost cycle or on models
with power saver switches.
