Abstract
An air tower assembly includes an outer housing, a duct with a damper opening, a damper configured to control a flow of air from a freezer compartment to a fresh food compartment, and at least partially transparent rear cover sheet attached to a rear of the outer housing that contains the duct and the damper within the air tower assembly. The rear cover sheet may be transparent or may have a clear or semi-opaque surface configured to allow visual confirmation of the damper during assembly, operation, and service. An air passageway is provided between the freezer compartment and the fresh food compartment to allow air to flow from the fresh food compartment to the freezer compartment.
