CW-164 – Genuine OEM Robertshaw Universal Washer Water Inlet Valve (E-1)

The CW-164 Genuine OEM Robertshaw Universal Washer Water Inlet Valve (E-1) is a high-performance washer water inlet valve designed for washing machines, engineered to precisely control hot and cold water flow into the washer tub. As part of the trusted Robertshaw E-1 mixing valve series, this component is built for laundry washer applications and is widely used in both residential and commercial-grade machines.

Available in Canada through Appliance Kingdom, this valve ships nationwide, offering fast access for homeowners, landlords, and appliance technicians who need a reliable solution for washer fill and water flow issues.

Function & Importance of the Washer Water Inlet Valve

The water inlet valve is responsible for regulating the entry of water into your washing machine during each wash cycle. It opens and closes electronically based on the washer’s control signals, ensuring the correct water level and temperature mix.

In washing machines, this component is essential because:

  • It controls hot and cold water intake

  • It ensures proper fill levels for each wash cycle

  • It supports correct detergent mixing and cleaning performance

The CW-164 uses a pilot-operated diaphragm design, delivering high flow efficiency with low electrical power demand, making it reliable and energy-efficient for long-term use.

Common Symptoms of a Faulty Washer Water Inlet Valve

If the CW-164 or your existing inlet valve is failing, your washing machine may show:

  • Washer not filling with water

  • Slow or weak water fill during cycles

  • Washer overfilling or not stopping water flow

  • Only hot or only cold water entering the machine

  • Cycle not starting or stopping mid-fill

  • Water leaks at the rear inlet connection

These issues typically indicate that the inlet valve is clogged, electrically failed, or mechanically stuck—directly impacting wash performance.
