What customers say

Customers say this vent hose stopped water leaking from the tub during spin and cleaning cycles. The failure is usually at the connector or foam gasket where the hose meets the tub, which wears out or breaks off. Leak moisture disrupted the dispenser or water control contacts in a few washers, requiring cleaning. A few also replaced a dispenser valve or motor in the same repair.

Appliance: Whirlpool Washer WFW92HEFC0

Water leaking out bottom of machine

Opened the back of machine and saw that a mouse had eaten holes in all but one of the rubber hoses. Took the top off the machine for better access. Appliance Parts Pros were the only company I could find that had all the pieces I needed in stock. Quick and easy to order online and fast shipping. Replaced the damaged hoses. Everything fits great and was easy to install. Definitely a diy project. I have even booked marked Appliance Parts Pros. Thank you Appliance parts Pros.

Appliance: Whirlpool Washer WFW94HEXW2

Deteriorated OEM parts replaced

Water escaping from the outer drum during spin cycles. After 12 years, the bellow and vent hoses were deteriorating. Because of these breaches allowing moisture into the upper cabinet, the dispenser errored when it was exposed to the moisture. Having these new parts solves this problem. I had to clean the dispenser and the actuator and reassemble. These were fairly simple to replace with basic hand tools in one job. It is made easier with 1/4 drive ratchets and nut drivers.

Found vent hose loose when looking to replace dispenser valve. The plastic coupler was broken. Only took a few minutes to replace vent hose. Too bad one cannot just buy the plastic coupler between hose and tub. It’s expensive to spend all the extra money (probably $35+) to replace parts that are fine. Received vent hose on Sat. Fed Ex shipping expects dispenser valve to be here Thursday. Will only take a couple of minutes to install the valve to complete the repair. Wish parts could have been shipped together.

The exhaust pipe inside my Maytag maxima washer was damaged

I watched the repair video in your web-site and replaced the part that I ordered from as per the video. The washer is working perfectly now. Thank you so much.

Error code indicated i had a dispenser motor issue and i also had a piece of the vent hose assembly i had attempted to fix unsuccessfully

After watching a brief video on the motor replacement (and receiving the parts) I simply followed the instructions and swapped motors. The vent hose simply has two hose clamps and was easy to replace. Both parts fit perfectly and I'm wearing clean clothes again.

Loud sound while spinning a bit of soapy water leaking under appliance water wouldn't turn on

Opened lid and found that the exhaust hose had broken off the tub (hence the noise when spinning and the leaking water). the moisture from this caused the contacts for the water control to corrode and not turn on. replaced the hose, lightly sanded the corroded contacts, and it's working great again. thanks for your quick shipping!
