Abstract
An interior layout for a refrigerator appliance features an interior liner defining a recess for a water tank, and an air tower assembly defining a space for the water tank laterally outside the air plenum of the air tower assembly. The water tank is arranged in the recess and secured to the liner with a mounting bracket. The air tower assembly includes insulation and an air tower cover. The insulation defines an opening that is dimensionally aligned with the recess and partially receives the water tank therein. The air tower cover is disposed about the insulation and conceals the water tank.
