Customer Questions and Answers for Door Seal by Whirlpool

This door seal replaces a worn or damaged gasket around the oven door, creating a tight barrier between the door and the front frame. A fresh seal helps the appliance heat efficiently and maintain steady cooking temperatures. What it does:

• Seals the gap between the door and oven frame to minimize heat loss
• Helps the oven preheat faster and hold set temperatures more consistently
• Replace if the gasket is torn, brittle, flattened, or frayed
• Common signs include heat escaping around the door edge and longer cook times

• 1 door seal

• Disconnect power and allow the oven to cool completely before beginning
• Open the door and carefully remove the old seal, noting its routing and attachment points
• Clean the mating surface to remove debris for a proper seal
• Install the new seal evenly without stretching; ensure all ends and anchors are fully seated
