WP40053901 - Genuine OEM Whirlpool Washer Drain Hose

WP40053901 – Genuine OEM Whirlpool Washer Drain Hose

The WP40053901 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Washer Drain Hose is an original factory‑manufactured drain hose designed specifically for Whirlpool washing machines and select compatible brands. This essential washer component channels wastewater from the washer’s pump out to your home’s drain location. Sourced and shipped across Canada by Appliance Kingdom, a trusted Edmonton, AB parts supplier, this hose helps resolve common draining issues and return your washer to reliable operation.

Function & Importance of the Washer Drain Hose

In a washer, the drain hose carries water from the drain pump assembly to the household drain, standpipe, or laundry trough during the drain and spin portions of the wash cycle. A sound, properly routed hose is vital for effective water removal and helps prevent leaks, slow draining, or water backing up into the tub or laundry area.

Using a Genuine OEM Whirlpool part like the WP40053901 ensures the hose is made to the original manufacturer specifications, with correct length, fittings, and materials that withstand regular use. Inferior or non‑OEM hoses can lead to premature failure, leaks, or improper drainage, risking water damage and reduced washer performance.

Common Symptoms Indicating Replacement

If the drain hose is cracked, brittle, kinked, leaking, or clogged, your washer may show one or more of these symptoms:

• Water remains in the washer after a cycle completes

• Slow or incomplete draining during or after wash cycles

• Water leaking from the back or bottom of the washer

• Washer repeatedly trying to drain without success

• Standing water in laundry area after a wash cycle

Yes — replacing the drain hose often fixes these draining problems, especially when the issue is traced to a damaged, deteriorated, or blocked hose.

Compatibility Guidance
