When your refrigerator's icemaker or water dispenser activates, the control board sends 120V to the solenoid coil. The valve opens for a precise duration, supplies metered water through the inlet line, then snaps closed when demand is satisfied.
Over time, mineral buildup, electrical wear, and rubber diaphragm fatigue cause failure — that's when your fridge stops making ice, the dispenser dribbles or stops, or water leaks behind the unit.
The IMV-701 solves this with factory-grade brass internals, sealed solenoid coils, and a tested cycle life rated for years of reliable service. Drop it in and your refrigerator runs like new.
