Nordic Cooling Unit 6610 for Norcold 1200/ 1210 Models with a 45 Degree AC Heater (replaces 634746)
Construction: New build (Dutchaire). This is a brand-new cooling unit, not remanufactured. Warranty: 3 years on new units.
The Nordic 6610 is a new-build Dutchaire replacement cooling unit for Norcold 1200, 1201, 1210 and 1211 refrigerators that use the newer style AC heating element with a 45 degree bend. It replaces Norcold cooling unit 634746.
Have the older 90 degree AC heater (Norcold 634747 cooling unit)? Order the Nordic 6600 (replaces 634747) instead.
Which 1200/ 1210 cooling unit do I need?
 90 degree heater: Nordic 6600 |  45 degree heater: Nordic 6610 (this page) |
| Your AC heating element | Norcold OEM cooling unit | Nordic replacement |
| Older style, 90 degree bend | 634747 | Nordic 6600 |
| Newer style, 45 degree bend | 634746 | Nordic 6610 |
Both units fit all 1200, 1201, 1210 and 1211 models. The only difference is the slot for the AC heating element. Check the bend on your AC heating element, or the Norcold part number on your old cooling unit, before you order.
Prefer the 6610 on a refrigerator with the older 90 degree heater? You can, but you must also replace the AC heater with the 45 degree Norcold AC heater, because the 90 degree heater will not fit this unit.

Signs of a Failed Cooling Unit
- Refrigerator does not cool on propane or electric
- Yellow residue or ammonia smell at the back of the refrigerator
- Boiler area gets hot but the refrigerator does not get cold
- Cooling slowly gets worse over time even after the heaters, burner, thermistor and control board check out
Rule out the heating elements, burner, thermistor, control board and ventilation before replacing a cooling unit. They can cause the same symptoms.
