The Dryer Door Seal is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dryers. It is located around the perimeter of the dryer door opening.  Includes door seal and adhesive. The seal prevents air exchanges between the dryer drum and the external environment, helping retain heat inside. Working together with the heating element, the door seal plays a key role in efficiently drying clothes. Causes of failure involve degradation over years of routine usage. Heat cycling and door slams gradually compromise the seal's integrity. Symptoms of a faulty door seal include: Extended drying times required  Clothes not drying fully before the cycle ends Warm air felt escaping from door/vents during use   High energy bills as more runtime needed This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore dryers.Part Number W10239307 (AP4369776) replaces 1482647, 8573845, 8575027, 8576627, AH2349140, EA2349140, PS2349140, W10106630, W10111903, W10130493, W10215728, W10221653, W10240777.
