Function & Importance of the Washer Drain Pump

The drain pump is responsible for removing wastewater from the washer tub during the drain and spin cycles. It pushes used water through the drain hose and out of the machine, ensuring clothes are properly rinsed and spun.

• Ensures complete wash cycles and proper rinsing

Using a Genuine OEM pump like WP34001098 is critical because:
