WP3357328 Whirlpool Vacuum Break Inlet Hose

The Whirlpool Vacuum Break Inlet Hose is a genuine original equipment manufacturer (OEM) part suitable for various Whirlpool washing machines. It is essential for preventing the backflow of water into the machine, thereby ensuring that water only moves in the intended direction throughout the washing cycle. This function is vital for the effective and hygienic operation of the washer.

Whirlpool's product range includes several well-known brands such as Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, and Admiral. Additionally, Whirlpool manufactures compatible components for brands like Sears-Kenmore and Ikea.

The durability of an inlet hose can be compromised by normal wear and tear, the use of strong detergents, or accidental damage such as punctures. Issues with the hose can disrupt water flow or cause contamination of the water used for washing clothes.

Indicators of a malfunctioning vacuum break inlet hose are:
- Leakage of water near the hose connection.
- Inadequate filling of the washer.
- Water flowing back into the washer.
- Low water pressure during the washing cycle.

This OEM part is also designed to fit models from other brands including Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore, ensuring broad compatibility and replacement ease.
