• Catches food particles and debris to prevent pump blockages and protect internal components
• Helps maintain normal water drainage and prevents standing water after a cycle
• Reduces unusual pump or grinding noises caused by debris in the sump
• Helps limit residue buildup that can contribute to odors or poor wash performance
