What is the purpose of a drain filter for dishwashers?

A dishwasher filter traps food particles, debris, and other solids from the dishwasher's wastewater. It prevents these substances from entering the drain pump and clogging it or causing damage. 

The drain is made of a removable mesh or screen and helps to protect the dishwasher's components and maintain proper drainage.

Why do you replace your dishwasher’s drain filter?

A clogged drain filter leads to various problems in a dishwasher. When the filter becomes blocked with debris, it restricts the flow of water, leading to poor drainage and potentially causing water to back up in the dishwasher. 

You can suffer from dirty dishes, unpleasant odours, and even damage to the dishwasher's pump or other components. Your dishwasher manual can also have advice on replacing the filter at regular intervals.

Is it easy to replace?

Yes. Check our demo video on cleaning and replacing dishwasher filters below. This dishwasher drain filter is a genuine Hotpoint dishwasher spare part. It also fits Ariston, Indesit, Scholtes, and Whirlpool dishwashers.

Great product, easy to fit

First replacement part since new. Easy to locate on website, and order. Only downside was cost of postage which was a good proportion of the cost of the product.
