Customer Questions and Answers for Insulation by Whirlpool

The Insulation is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers, specifically engineered to enhance the appliance's efficiency by reducing heat loss and minimizing noise. This insulation wraps around the dishwasher, acting as a barrier that keeps heat within the appliance during cycles and dampens the sound of its operation, making for a quieter kitchen environment.

Causes of a bad insulation part can include wear and tear over time, moisture damage leading to mold or mildew buildup, or physical damage from pests or mishandling during installation or repairs. 

Symptoms of inadequate insulation include:

• Noticeable increase in the dishwasher's noise level
• Exterior surfaces of the dishwasher feeling warmer than usual
• Longer wash cycles due to inefficient temperature maintenance

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.
