Whirlpool WP3369178 Dishwasher Check Valve Ball
Product Description
The Whirlpool WP3369178 Dishwasher Check Valve Ball is a little but crucial part of your dishwasher. It is a one-way valve that regulates water flow inside the appliance. Envision a little ball bearing enclosed in a casing. The ball moves aside to let water pass through when the water pressure rises in the desired direction. The ball stops water from back flowing by springing back to its initial location as soon as the pressure decreases or reverses. This keeps contaminated wash water from mixing with clean rinse water, resulting in a more sanitary clean for your dishes. Dishwashers that are manufactured by Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, and other brands that are compatible come WP3369178 with this check valve ball. A defective check valve ball might result in soiled dishes and possibly water leakage.
