Description

Spring tank secures and positions an appliance tension spring to maintain proper movement and balance for a door or other moving assembly. Replacing a worn or broken tank restores correct spring alignment and smoother, more reliable operation. What it does:

• Holds the end of the tension spring and keeps it aligned in the assembly.
• Maintains correct spring tension so doors or panels open, close and remain balanced.
• Prevents spring detachment that can cause sudden drops, misalignment or noisy operation.
• Common symptoms of a failing tank: door drops or won't stay open, uneven closing, rattling or banging during movement.

What's included: One spring tank. Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid electrical hazards.
• Support the door or moving panel while replacing the tank to prevent sudden movement or injury.
• Use the OEM part orientation and hardware; inspect the spring and mounting points for wear and replace if scored or damaged.
• Test the door/panel operation several times after installation to ensure correct tension and secure mounting.
