The Blower Wheel is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. This component is essential in the dryer's air system, as it is responsible for moving air through the drum and out the vent. The blower wheel works by pulling air over the heating element, circulating it through the clothes, and expelling the moist air outside, which assists in the efficient drying of laundry.

Symptoms of a failing Blower Wheel include:

• Reduced airflow, resulting in clothes not drying properly or increased drying times
• Unusual noises like rattling or thumping, suggesting the wheel may be loose or damaged
• Excessive vibration of the dryer, especially if the blower wheel is unbalanced
• The dryer overheating due to restricted airflow if the wheel is clogged or malfunctioning

Causes of a bad blower wheel typically involve objects getting caught in the wheel, lint build-up that unbalances the wheel, or wear and tear that leads to the wheel's fins breaking or deforming.

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

The Lint Screen Grille is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. It works with the lint screen to capture and collect lint during the drying cycle, preventing it from clogging the vent and ensuring proper airflow.
