KitchenAid KRSC336R 20.9-Cu.-Ft. Freestanding Side-by-Side Refrigerator
Freestanding side-by-side owners most often report a warm fresh-food side, freezer frost or water under the cabinet.
Model overview
The KitchenAid KRSC336R is a freestanding side-by-side refrigerator with a rated 20.9 cu. ft. total capacity and a cabinet 35 1/2 inches wide. It has an automatic ice maker and a through-the-door dispenser, and the unit defrosts on its own. Because it is freestanding rather than built in, the owner should watch for a warm compartment or a loud compressor, since both can show up on this cabinet. Across the metro areas we cover, these are the symptoms that bring owners to book a repair. For the booking form, add the symptom, the full model number from the rating label, and any code on the display.

What sets the KRSC336R apart
The through-the-door dispenser and the compact-depth side-by-side layout set the KRSC336R apart in its family. The 20.9 cu. ft. capacity is shared between a refrigerator and freezer, and the cabinet is 35 1/2 inches wide. R-600a refrigerant and 600 kWh of annual energy use are documented specifications, so refrigerant handling and the energy figure matter when the cooling side is serviced. Day to day, the through-door dispenser means the door opens less often for ice and water.
Service notes for the KRSC336R
A freezer that frosts over or a fresh-food section that will not hold temperature points a technician to the defrost system and the door seals, which control how cold air moves between the two compartments. A compressor that runs loud or nonstop is a cooling-system issue, and the technician will want to know whether the sound is a hum, a fan or a rattle. Water under the unit often comes from the defrost drain or the ice maker supply, so note whether the puddle sits near the front or the back. Before calling, make sure air can move around the cabinet and that the door gaskets close cleanly. Because this model uses R-600a refrigerant, a technician handles any cooling-circuit work with that refrigerant in mind. Extra letters or digits follow this base on the rating label, so the complete string should be entered.
The model number is printed on the rating label, usually on a side wall or the ceiling inside the fresh-food section, or behind the base grille; match it letter for letter before booking, because a single letter can change parts.
