T36BB120SS

Thermador T36BB120SS

What we most often repair on units like this

  1. Freezer drawer not closing flush against its seal
  2. Water filter flow reduced, so the ice bin fills slowly
  3. Fresh-food side warm because the damper is stuck
  4. Door open alarm sounding intermittently
  5. Frost on the freezer back wall

The T36BB120SS has a named successor, the T36BB122SS on thermador.com, so owners and designers asking about it are usually matching an opening that is already built. The cutout and the depth are the same as other 36-inch Freedom bottom-freezer units, which keeps the swap simple.

On the service side, the model carries SuperCool, SuperFreeze and EcoMode, and those modes can interact. A kitchen that has been switched into EcoMode may run slightly warmer by design, which looks like a problem until we check the setting. We confirm modes first, then door seals, then the ice and water line.

The 4.5 lbs per day ice figure is our benchmark. If the bin is empty overnight, we start at the water filter and the inlet valve. We keep the work tidy and leave the cabinet exactly as we found it.

T36BB120SST36BB120SS questions
Does a successor model use the same parts?

Parts overlap in many cases, but we match them by exact model number. The listing shows T36BB122SS as the successor, and we confirm fit before ordering.

Why is the fridge warmer since I turned on EcoMode?

EcoMode is designed to reduce energy use, and that can mean slightly warmer operation. If readings still look high with it off, we test the damper and fan.

Can the freezer drawer be adjusted if it will not close?

Yes. Often the drawer is catching on a slide or the seal. We realign it and check the alarm switch. Then we test the alarm switch.
