The Whirlpool W11314648 Washer Door Boot Seal forms a secure barrier between the washer drum and door, preventing leaks during operation. Made from flexible rubber, it compresses when the door is shut, ensuring a tight seal that keeps water inside the drum. When the door opens, it expands, allowing smooth access without obstruction. This seal helps maintain proper water levels, preventing spills and protecting floors. It also minimizes moisture buildup around the door area, reducing the risk of mold and mildew. By keeping water contained, it ensures efficient washing performance, allowing detergent and water to circulate effectively for thorough cleaning. Simple to install, it helps restore the washer’s function, keeping laundry cycles smooth and efficient.
