Product Description

The General Electric WH16X29509 Washing Machine Damper Vent is a part meant to contain airflow and the release of moisture. Its primary function is to enable the air to move out of the washer cabinet and to prevent the water and lint backflow. The damper vent is a flap that closes and opens as the internal pressure varies during the cycles. It is installed in the back or side panel of the washer and fits in the existing opening, and is secured using standard fasteners. This damper vent serves to ensure constant ventilation when the building is used normally.
