Description

This replacement funnel guides dryer airflow from the drum into the lint screen housing. Replacing a cracked or missing funnel helps restore a tight air path for efficient drying and keeps lint contained inside the proper ductwork.

• Directs exhaust air from the drum into the lint screen/duct path
• Helps prevent lint blowback and cabinet contamination
• A damaged or warped funnel can cause longer dry times and poor airflow
• Contribute to excess lint in the drum or overheating symptoms

What's included: 1 funnel Install notes:

• Disconnect power; for gas models, also shut off the gas supply
• Access is typically through the top or front panel; remove lint duct fasteners as needed
• Transfer and reuse existing mounting hardware and any seals
• Clean lint from mating ducts and ensure an airtight fit before reassembly
