The Water Inlet is an OEM component specifically designed for Bosch refrigerators featuring internal water filtration and dispensing systems. It serves as the entry point for unpurified water into the appliance.
The water inlet utilizes precise engineering to thread securely onto liquid supply lines. Its feed line transport capacity is rated to withstand regular high-pressure pulses from large filtered volumes.
Causes for inlet replacement typically relate to normal wear at the threaded fitting connection over time. Loosening can affect water tightness and risk leak development.
Symptoms of a failing water inlet include:
- Water leakage around the inlet fitting
- Loose inlet face or threads requiring tightening
- Diminished water flow rates into the refrigerator
This OEM Bosch replacement part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau, and some Kenmore refrigerator models utilizing matching water system architectures. Reinstallation restores a tight seal and reliable supply transport functionality.
