This dryer blower wheel mounts on the motor shaft to move air through the drum, lint filter, and exhaust duct, helping maintain proper airflow, even drying, and overall dryer performance.
- Moves air through the drum, lint screen, and duct to exhaust moisture and lint
- If the hub is stripped or the wheel is loose on the motor shaft, airflow drops and dry times increase
- Cracked, warped, or broken fins can cause rattling, scraping, or vibration during operation
- Common symptoms include weak air at the vent, longer cycles, or unusual noise from the lower/front cabinet area
What's included: 1 blower wheel Install notes:
- Disconnect power; if gas, also shut off the gas supply. Wear gloves—sheet-metal edges can be sharp
- Access the blower housing by removing the front/lower panel and blower cover as your model requires
- Note thread direction and any retaining nut/clip when removing; transfer any reusable hardware to the new wheel
- Clear lint and debris from the blower housing and ducts; ensure the new wheel spins freely without rubbing before reassembly
