Abstract
A refrigerator includes an improved air return system providing a channel of air below the crisper pans. Particularly, a separator top is positioned above a separator insulation body to define a space therebetween providing an air flow path for channeling return air flow. An inlet to the space is positioned proximate the front of the separator wall and an outlet is positioned proximate the rear of the separator. An air flow passage through the separator is in communication with the outlet for returning refrigerated air to the freezer compartment.
