Whirlpool WPW10538166 Dishwasher Pump Grommet

The Whirlpool WPW10538166 dishwasher pump grommet comprises a small but essential component of your dishwasher's circulation system. It operates as a seal, lying between the circulation pump and the sump. This ends up resulting in a watertight connection, avoiding leaks around the pump inlet. Leaks in this area can waste water, create damage to your dishwasher and surrounding cabinetry, and possibly decrease overall washing performance. The grommet is a fundamental rubber ring that compresses and produces a tight seal. During a wash cycle, water from the sump is drawn into the circulation pump by means of the grommet, guaranteeing that it flows smoothly with no leaks. A properly functioning grommet is necessary for your dishwasher to function quietly and continuously.
