Hotpoint Washing Machine Door Seal Rubber Gasket

Description

Your washer's door seal prevents leaks during the wash and spin cycles

The door seal is located between the drum and external housing of the washing machine. A tight seal on the door prevents detergent and water leaks while the washing and spinning cycles are underway. 

Signs you need to replace the door seal rubber gasket

The door seal rubber gasket needs replacement if it shows signs of wear, such as cracks, tears, or mould growth. 

Water stains or rust near the door seal meeting the drum or frame suggest a faulty gasket allowing water to leak. A worn gasket leads to more vibration and noise during washing as it can't stabilise the drum effectively and cause increased vibrations.
