The Whirlpool W11482025 is an essential device within your Whirlpool refrigerator, specifically functioning as a water inlet valve. Consider it the water supply controller for your refrigerator's ice machine and water dispenser. This valve gets water pressure from the household water pipe. When the ice maker or dispenser requires water, the W11482025 receives an alert from the refrigerator's control board. The valve then opens, allowing a controlled flow of water to fill the ice maker or distribute water via the specified line. Once the ice maker or dispenser is satisfied, the control board sends another signal, and the valve closes, cutting off the water supply.A fully operating W11482025 provides a consistent and regulated flow of water to your ice maker and dispenser.
