The gasket around your refrigerator door is used to make a tight seal when the door is closed, which keeps the cool air inside and the room temperature air outside. If the gasket has become damaged and is not sealing properly, it is important you replace it as soon as possible. Without the tight seal, the fresh food stored in your fridge may not be at the proper temperature, which could result in foodborne illnesses. Replacing the gasket is a simple repair and should not require any tools. You may need a putty knife to loosen up a corner of the old gasket, but otherwise it can be removed by hand. Ensure that the groove is clean of any debris before fitting the new one into place.
