The Oven Door Seal is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens. This seal is crucial for maintaining the oven’s efficiency by creating an airtight seal around the door, preventing heat from escaping during cooking. It helps ensure that the oven maintains the correct temperature, which is essential for even cooking and energy efficiency.
Common causes of a bad oven door seal include wear and tear from regular use, exposure to high temperatures, and damage from cleaning or handling.
Symptoms of a bad oven door seal include:
- Heat escaping from around the oven door
- Longer cooking times or uneven cooking
- The oven door not closing properly
- Visible cracks, tears, or deformation in the seal
This OEM part is also compatible with some Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
