The Dishwasher Door Seal is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dishwashers. It provides a tight seal around the dishwasher door to prevent water, sound, and heat from escaping during the wash cycle. Measuring 71” in length (and stretching up to 75”), this door seal prevents water from leaking out during wash cycles.
Causes of a bad seal can include cracks, tears, or splits that develop due to regular use and age. Damage may also occur from over-tightening of the door or accidental impact.
Symptoms of a bad dishwasher door seal include:
- Water or moist air leaks around the door during a cycle
- Higher energy bills due to hot air escaping
- Excess moisture or mineral deposits around the door seal area
- Food particles or debris trapped under a torn seal
This genuine OEM Whirlpool replacement seal is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
