8193918 - Whirlpool Dishwasher Filter

This Whirlpool Dishwasher Filter (8193918) is a genuine part from Whirlpool, intended for use in dishwashers. Compatible with Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Estate, Inglis, and Crosley brands, it ensures your dishes come out clean by trapping food particles and debris that could otherwise clog internal components. This filter, also known as a dishwasher filter assembly or an accumulator, is cylindrical in shape and mounts across the pump intake to screen wash water. By screening water, it also blocks sound, contributing to a quieter operation. Emptying or replacing this filter regularly prevents recontamination and maintains water flow, ensuring screens keep damaging matter out of wash systems. Symptoms indicating this filter may need replacement or cleaning include visible debris or a tear in the filter, which can lead to extra buildup, causing dishes to not be adequately cleaned. Before purchasing, make sure to verify your device's model number for compatibility with this filter.
