T30IB905SP

Thermador T30IB905SP

What we most often repair on units like this

  1. Warm food compartment next to a cold freezer
  2. Gasket tearing on a freezer drawer corner
  3. Slow ice once the filter date has gone by
  4. Alarm sounding although the door is shut

Not every kitchen has room for 36 inches of refrigerator, and for those the T30IB905SP is the 30-inch answer in the 905 generation, taking over from the 800-generation T30IB800SP. Thermador keeps a service page for it and lists it on the Star-K roster. It has one fresh-food door above a freezer drawer, and the whole cabinet is ready for custom panels on a Freedom hinge.

A freezer drawer this narrow leaves little room to spare, so frost from a torn gasket corner builds fast and eats into the space. If the alarm sounds when the door is closed, we look at two things that do not involve the sealed system: whether the panel is catching, and whether the door switch is being pressed. When food warms on top while the freezer stays cold, we trace the airflow before anything else.

Key features

  • Built-in bottom-freezer refrigerator, 30 inches wide, for custom panels
  • Sabbath mode with Star-K certification
  • Freedom hinge so panels sit flush
  • Took the place of the 800-generation T30IB800SP at this width

T30IB905SPT30IB905SP questions
Why does the alarm go off when the door is closed?

Most often the door is not reaching its switch, because a panel has shifted or a bin is in the way. A switch that has worn out is the other possibility, and we test both.

Does a stainless version of this 30-inch refrigerator exist?

Yes. Thermador sold factory-assembled 30-inch bottom freezers in stainless, among them the T30BB915SS with a Masterpiece handle and the T30BB925SS with a Professional handle, though both are now discontinued.

How quickly does frost build in a drawer this small?

Quickly, because a torn corner lets damp air in with every opening of the drawer, and the small space means frost soon takes up room. Replacing the gasket stops the supply, and the old frost can then be cleared.
