The Inner Door Glass is an OEM replacement part Whirlpool ranges. It is a clear glass panel located inside the range door that helps retain heat and allows for viewing of the cooking surface. As a barrier retaining heat, the door glass plays an important role in the range's cooking efficiency. The glass measures approximately 18 1/4 x 12 3/4 inches.
Causes of a bad inner door glass can include thermal stress from frequent temperature changes, accidental impact, or improper cleaning techniques that lead to cracks or shattering.
Symptoms of a bad inner door glass include:
- The foggy or cloudy appearance that impacts the visibility of the cooking
- Cracks or chips that compromise the sealed barrier and allow heat to escape
- Difficulty closing securely due to misalignment
This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
