Kenmore / Sears Duct Parts

The Air Duct is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dryers. It is responsible for carrying hot air from the dryer drum to the vent outlet, ensuring proper airflow and drying.

A bad air duct can occur due to wear and tear, damage, or clogging. If you notice symptoms such as longer drying times, poor drying results, or excessive heat inside the dryer, it may be time to replace the air duct.

Symptoms of a bad air duct include:

• Longer drying times
• Poor drying performance
• Excessive heat inside the dryer

Restore your dryer by replacing the faulty or damaged air duct with this genuine OEM part.

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

Dryer Vent Test Kit ensures your dryer's vent system is operating properly. Kit includes two tests depending on the location of your dryer's lint screen: One for the lint screen in the top of your dryer, and one for the lint screen in the front of your dryer. Instructions included.

This air brake/drain hose assembly creates an anti-siphon break in the drain line and safely routes wastewater to household plumbing. Replacing a cracked, kinked, or clogged assembly restores reliable draining and helps prevent leaks or backflow.

• Provides the air gap/vacuum break to help prevent siphoning and contamination
• Connects the dishwasher's drain outlet to the air gap or garbage disposal/inlet
• Helps keep water from backing into the tub after a cycle
• Typical failure signs: leaks, slow or no drain, water returning to tub, visible hose damage

• Disconnect power; shut off water supply and place towels to catch residual water
• Note original hose routing and clamp positions; reuse existing clamps and seals as needed
• Maintain a high loop or external air gap per local code when routing the drain line
• After installation, run a short cycle and inspect all connections for leaks or kinks

This replacement box/housing restores the appliance's original enclosure where internal components mount, protecting wiring and parts from damage. It helps maintain safe operation and prevents loose components from shifting. What it does:

• Provides a protective enclosure for internal components and wiring
• Keeps parts properly positioned to prevent rubbing or disconnection
• Helps reduce vibration-related noise caused by loose components
• Restores a secure mounting point for associated hardware

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any work
• Remove panels as needed to access the original box; keep fasteners for reuse
• Inspect surrounding wiring and components while installing the new box

This exhaust duct routes hot, moist air from the appliance to the home vent, helping maintain proper airflow and reduce lint buildup. It's a direct-fit replacement designed to restore correct venting and appliance performance. What it does:

• Channels exhaust air from the appliance to the external vent.
• Helps prevent reduced airflow that can lengthen cycle times or reduce drying/heating performance.
• Reduces lint accumulation in the appliance exhaust path when intact and properly connected.
• Replaces damaged, crushed or disconnected ducting that can cause air leakage or poor venting.

• Disconnect power to the appliance (and shut off gas supply for gas models) before starting.
• Use gloves to avoid sharp edges; secure connections with the original clamps or equivalent fasteners.

This duct assembly channels air through the appliance to maintain proper airflow and reliable operation. Replacing a damaged or cracked duct helps restore ventilation and can reduce noise and poor performance. What it does:

• Directs air from the blower/tub area into the vent path to enable normal airflow
• Prevents leaks that can reduce drying/cooling efficiency or cause longer cycles
• Helps reduce vibration and rattling caused by a loose or broken duct
• Common symptom: reduced airflow, longer cycle times, or unusual noise during operation

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair
• Inspect surrounding seals and mounting tabs; replace any damaged hardware
• Basic hand tools required; handle carefully to avoid cracking plastic tabs

This exhaust vent extension provides extra duct length to move dryer or hood exhaust farther from the appliance, improving airflow routing and helping reduce backpressure and lint buildup in short-vent installations. What it does:

• Extends the length of an existing exhaust duct to reach a distant vent outlet
• Helps restore proper ventilation when original ducting is too short
• Reduces restricted airflow that can cause longer dry times or excess lint accumulation
• Works as an inline rigid/semirigid extension piece for exhaust systems

• Disconnect power (and gas for gas dryers) before accessing or modifying exhaust connections
• Remove lint and debris from ducting before installing the extension to ensure clear airflow
• Securely fasten with appropriate clamps or foil tape and maintain a smooth, unobstructed path
