W10828351 Whirlpool Lint Screen Cover and Filter for Dryers

Lint Screen Cover and Filter for Dryers.

The Lint Screen Cover and Filter is a genuine OEM part designed for use with Whirlpool dryers, compatible with several brands including Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, Admiral, and also suitable for certain Sears-Kenmore and Ikea models. This component plays a crucial role by trapping lint and debris from clothes during the drying cycle. This helps prevent these materials from obstructing the dryer vent. Additionally, the cover secures the lint screen in place, aiding in maintaining efficient airflow within the dryer.

Common issues with a faulty Lint Screen Cover and Filter are often due to physical damage like tears or holes in the lint screen which allow lint to escape and block the vent. A cracked or broken cover might also fail to hold the lint screen properly, or an accumulation of fabric softener and lint could diminish the filter's efficiency.

Indicators that the Lint Screen Cover and Filter may need replacement include:
- Longer than usual drying times.
- Noticeable accumulation of lint around the dryer.
- The dryer operating at higher temperatures than typical.

This essential Whirlpool part is also interchangeable with appliances from Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears.
