What does the bimetal defrost thermostat do?
Defrost bimetal thermostats prevent the harmful buildup of frost on refrigerator and freezer evaporators. These devices trigger a defrost heater that stops frost from forming on refrigeration evaporator coils, which helps keep the refrigerator and freezer running efficiently.
