• Do not open or puncture sealed-system tubing; if damage is suspected, stop.

The Blower Housing Seal is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. This seal is strategically placed around the blower housing to prevent air leaks, which can reduce the efficiency of your dryer by allowing heated air to escape and drawing in unheated air. A proper seal ensures optimal air flow and temperature regulation within the dryer, contributing to faster drying times and reduced energy consumption. 

Symptoms of a failing blower housing seal include:

• Increased drying times due to inefficient heat use
• Unusual noises from air escaping the blower housing
• Excess lint escaping into the dryer cabinet, which could lead to maintenance issues

Causes of blower housing seal degradation typically involve wear and tear from regular use, exposure to high temperatures that can cause the material to harden and crack, and improper installation that can lead to premature failure.

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

This replacement door restores a secure close and proper sealing for your appliance. Replacing a damaged or misaligned door helps ensure safe operation and correct latch/switch engagement for reliable everyday use. What it does:

• Provides the closing barrier for the appliance cabinet to maintain proper containment (heat, air, steam, or moisture as designed)
• Aligns with hinges and latch/door switches for correct interlock and operation
• Helps prevent leaks and drafts and protects the interior from damage
• Can address issues such as difficulty closing, visible cracks/dents, poor sealing, or the unit not starting/stopping when the door is moved

• Includes 1 door

• Disconnect power before servicing; also shut off gas or water if applicable
• Support the door during removal/installation; a second person may be needed for larger/heavier doors
• Transfer any reusable hardware (hinge pins, screws, nameplate/trim) from the original as needed
• After installation, verify alignment, latch engagement, and seal/gasket contact; test operation

• Finish, handle style, and configuration are model-specific—ensure the correct match

The Filter Housing is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. As part of the dryer ventilation system, the filter housing holds the lint filter in place, trapping lint and debris before it exits through the vent. It helps prevent blockages in the exhaust vent and surrounding area.

Causes of a bad filter housing can include cracks, breaks or defects in the plastic material over time due to normal use and heat exposure inside the dryer. Increased wear and tear from extended use can also cause damage.

Symptoms of a bad filter housing include:

• Excessive lint building up inside the dryer
• Reduced air flow and inefficient drying times
• Strange sounds like vibrations or rattling coming from the vent area
• Lint escaping from gaps in the filter housing

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

This Y-shaped connector hose diverts water between two inlet lines to route supply where needed. It restores proper water flow paths and replaces damaged or leaking split-connection plumbing on compatible appliances. What it does:

• Splits a single water inlet into two outlets so water can serve two components
• Provides a sealed path to prevent cross-flow between lines
• Commonly replaced when the connector leaks, cracks, or becomes brittle
• Helps restore normal water delivery when a split supply is required

• Turn off the appliance and shut off the water supply before beginning.
• Inspect mating fittings and replace any damaged clamps or seals.
• Hand-start fittings to avoid cross-threading, then tighten securely; check manufacturer torque guidance if available.
• After installation, restore water and power and check all connections carefully for leaks.
