What is the cubic feet of My Kenmore refrigerator? (Learn it the easiest way!)

But if you only have the traditional metal tape measure, of course you will need to take your refrigerator’s contents one at a time. It will take you longer to measure though specially when there’s liquid products and edible grocery items in each shelves. Remember that you have to get the right data for each dimension to get the accurate measurement of your refrigerator capacity.

In case you are not familiar with each mathematical dimensions - width refers to the length from one side to another, height is the length from bottom to the top while depth is the space from the foremost edge extending to the rear wall of your fridge.

The solution to getting the cubic meter of the refrigerator is multiplying its width, length and depth and dividing it by 1,728. Because there are 12 inches in a foot, a cubic foot has the dimensions 12 x 12 x 12, equaling 1,728 cubic inches. As you divide by 1,728, you are converting cubic inches into cubic feet.

For example, our Kenmore refrigerator measures 32 (width), 30.2 (depth) and 50 (height) that is equivalent to 48,320 cu in or 27.96 cu ft capacity. Follow the same step to learn the cubic feet of your Kenmore refrigerator.

2. Know your Refrigerator

All of us know that companies (especially technology specialised ones) provide standard sizes for their products. Despite that, the term “standard” is not actually precise. If you wonder why, it is best for you to know its style, manufacturer, model, and whether or not it can be powered by battery.

Whether you’d have already changed a unit or not, you may have heard the common styles of refrigerators namely top-mount, bottom-mount, side by side and French door or built-in. Each of these styles have their own average width-depth-height which you can use to calculate its average cubic feet.

• The average dimension of Bottom /Top Mount Freezer is 29 in (width), 65 – 67 in (height) and 31 in (depth).
• Side by Side Freezer is 35 in (width), 67-71 in (height) and 30 in (depth).
• French Door Freezer is 35 in (width), 68 in (height) and 29 in (depth).

Although these are just the average sizes of the following types, it can provide you the right answer.

3. Look for Serial Sticker

If you have nothing but the refrigerator itself, try to look for its serial sticker. It is commonly found inside or at the back of your refrigerator. It will show you important details such as the serial number, model number, product number, bar code and manufacturing date. Serial Sticker and number are important because it identify particular unit that a particular brand have, just like how fingerprints identify every person.

Some models particularly designate its capacity on the unit number. For example, XY21 tells us that the refrigerator has 21 cu ft. Another example is Kenmore 253.58082893, the 0 as 3rd digit after the dot appoint the size.

3. Search Online

If you can't find the serial sticker or you have no measuring tools in your home, searching online for your refrigerator's model and specifications is the best option left. Go for a forum interactive site and try asking others if they have similar unit to easily find your concern. I did search our Kenmore unit which is its Elite 51799 model Side by Side Refrigerator color back and the result I got from the first tip is pretty accurate.
