WP8269259 – Genuine OEM Whirlpool Dishwasher Air Vent Gasket

Ensure a leak-free and efficient operation with the WP8269259 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Dishwasher Air Vent Gasket. This essential rubber gasket forms a tight seal around the dishwasher's air vent, preventing water and steam from escaping during wash and dry cycles.

If you’ve noticed water leaking near the dishwasher vent or steam escaping from the door, it could be due to a worn or damaged air vent gasket. Replacing it with a genuine OEM part ensures your appliance continues to function efficiently and safely.
