Parts for Kitchenaid KXD4636YSS0: 01 - Ventilation Parts

The Filter for Whirlpool Range Hoods is an OEM component specifically designed for select Whirlpool kitchen range hoods. This filter plays a crucial role in removing smoke, particles, and grease from the air circulated through the ventilation system. It works to reduce odors and keep the kitchen environment fresh. 

Causes of a bad filter can include excessive buildup of debris that clogs the filter mesh over time, damage that compromises its filtering ability, or being used past its recommended replacement cycle.  

Symptoms of a bad filter include:

• Reduced airflow and ventilation 
• Strong cooking smells lingering in the kitchen
• Grease or other residue visible on the interior surfaces of the range hood

This OEM Whirlpool replacement filter is specially shaped to fit precisely within the range hood system. It is compatible with KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and select Kenmore models. 

This replacement grease filter traps cooking grease and airborne particles as your microwave's vent runs. Replacing a clogged or damaged filter helps maintain airflow, protect the blower and ductwork, and keep the area under the unit cleaner. What it does:

• Traps grease and particulates from cooktop fumes during venting
• Helps maintain proper airflow through the vent system
• Protects the fan/motor and interior ducting from buildup
• Common symptoms: weak venting, visible grease buildup, lingering smoke, or a torn/warped filter

• 1 grease filter

• Disconnect power to the appliance before service
• Access the filter from the underside; release the retaining tab or screws (varies by model)
• Slide out the old filter and seat the new one fully and securely
• Do not operate the vent/microwave without a filter installed

This front cover replaces the damaged or worn outer front panel on compatible dryers, restoring the appliance's appearance and protecting internal components. It provides a clean mounting surface for the door and controls. What it does

The Blower-Fan is an OEM component compatible with Whirlpool range hoods. Located inside the venting system, this multi-blade centrifugal fan powerfully evacuates cooking fumes, smoke, and odors from the kitchen. It pulls contaminated air through filters and vents it outside through ductwork.

Causes of a bad blower-fan can include accumulated grease buildup on fan blades that causes vibration and imbalance over time. Plastic housing cracks or breaks could also reduce air movement.  

Symptoms of a faulty blower-fan include:

• Inadequate ventilation of cooking fumes and smells  
• Greasy residue left behind on cookware and surfaces
• Reduced exhaust capability requiring longer range hood use
• Abnormal noises emitting from the venting system

This Whirlpool Blower-Fan is compatible in some Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, and Roper vent hoods as well.
