5231EL1001C LG Lint Filter Assembly with Felt Rim Seal

The Lint Filter Assembly with Felt Rim Seal is a genuine OEM part designed for LG dryers, and it is also compatible with certain Kenmore/Sears models. This filter plays an essential role in capturing lint and debris from clothing during the drying cycle. Typically positioned at the door or top of the dryer, depending on the model, the filter promotes effective airflow and heat distribution by preventing lint buildup in the dryer vent.

Over time, the filter may experience normal wear and tear or may become brittle if not cleaned regularly, potentially leading to damage.

Indicators of a malfunctioning Lint Filter include:
- Decreased drying efficiency, which may result in longer drying times.
- An increase in lint or debris escaping into the dryer vent, creating a potential fire hazard.
- Visible signs of wear or damage on the filter, such as tears or holes, which may allow lint to bypass the filter.

Regular maintenance and timely replacement of the lint filter are recommended to ensure optimal dryer performance and safety.
