The Door Boot Seal is an OEM part for Frigidaire washing machines. It creates a watertight seal between the washer tub and the door, preventing water from leaking during the wash cycle.
Causes of a bad door boot seal can include wear and tear over time, mold or mildew buildup, and damage from sharp objects or improper cleaning methods. Exposure to harsh detergents or frequent overloading of the washer can also contribute to the deterioration of the seal.
Symptoms of a bad door boot seal include:
- Water leaking from the washer door
- Visible cracks, tears, or holes in the seal
- Mold or mildew buildup causing unpleasant odors
- Clothes coming out wetter than usual due to water leakage
This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.
