W11535094 Whirlpool Water Inlet Valve

The Water Inlet Valve is an essential OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers, facilitating the flow of water from the household supply into the dishwasher for effective cleaning cycles. This valve is compatible with various brands under the Whirlpool umbrella, including Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Additionally, Whirlpool manufactures compatible components for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea appliances.

Over time, the performance of the inlet valve may degrade due to the buildup of mineral deposits within the valve or the deterioration of its seals, which can prevent the valve from closing properly. This wear and tear can lead to additional stress on the dishwasher's internal components.

Common indicators of a malfunctioning inlet valve include:

- Inconsistent or slow water filling that doesn't reach the desired level
- Variable water pressure during the fill stage
- Leaking water at the point of connection
- The dishwasher's inability to move past the initial filling phase

Replacing a faulty inlet valve with this Whirlpool OEM part can help maintain the efficiency and longevity of your dishwasher. This replacement part is designed to fit seamlessly with the models mentioned, ensuring reliable performance.
