Roper Dishwasher Filter

This adapter tube assembly connects sections of the appliance's water line to create a secure, leak-resistant path for water flow. Replace it if the tube is cracked or the connection no longer seals properly to prevent leaks and restore flow.

• Connects water tubing between components within the appliance's water system
• Helps maintain a tight, leak-resistant seal at the joint
• Restores proper water flow when a tube or connector is damaged
• Typical symptoms: water leaking at the connection, reduced or no water flow, visible cracks/kinks, loose fit

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Relieve line pressure and place a towel or pan to catch any residual water
• Note routing and orientation before removal to ensure correct reassembly
• After installation, restore water and check all connections for leaks

This pump sump screen filters lint, debris and small objects from wash water before it reaches the drain pump, helping prevent clogs and pump damage. Replace a cracked or clogged screen to restore proper draining. What it does:

• Captures lint, coins, hair and small debris before the drain pump
• Helps prevent pump blockages that cause poor draining or standing water
• Reduces wear on the drain pump by stopping larger debris
• Improves overall drain performance when the existing screen is damaged or clogged

• Disconnect power and water before accessing the pump area
• Remove the washer access panel or cabinet per your model's service instructions to reach the sump
• Inspect and clean surrounding areas and the pump inlet when replacing the screen

The Filter Screen is an OEM component specifically designed for Whirlpool dishwashers. Located inside the sump area, the durable mesh screen captures small food particles and debris before wash water is recirculated through cycles.

Symptoms of a bad filter screen can include clogging obscuring openings over time, degrading mesh no longer inhibiting passage, or dislodging from mounting points allowing bypass.

Causes involve the normal accumulation of soils requiring periodic cleaning. Mineral buildup may eventually cement sections together reducing effectiveness. 

Symptoms of a bad filter screen include:

• Dirty or soiled wash water unable to fully circulate  
• Filth dispersing throughout the wash cabinet interior
• Reduced cleaning and unsatisfactory dish results

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, and some Kenmore dishwasher models. Replace to maintain built-in wastewater filtration protecting major components.
