2199041 Genuine Oven Seal for Whirlpool, Ariston and Indesit Group Ovens, Replacement Oven Door Gasket

2199041 is a genuine oven seal from the Whirlpool group, the company behind the Whirlpool, Ariston and Indesit appliance brands. An oven seal is the heat-resistant gasket that closes the gap around the oven door so the heat stays in the cavity. We don't have a model list for 2199041, so check the number against your old seal or the oven's parts list first.

Signs the oven door seal has had its day

An oven seal is fitted around the front of the cavity or on the inner door, depending on the design, and squashes slightly when the door closes. That contact keeps hot air in and protects the controls and handle from heat. As it ages it flattens, frays, tears or comes loose at the corners. Then you'll notice hot air or steam escaping around the door, a handle or control panel that gets hotter than usual, longer cooking times, uneven browning and higher power use.

Replacing the oven seal

Make sure the oven is completely cool and switched off at the wall. Seals are usually held by clips or hooks pushed into holes around the cavity. Note how the corners sit and where any join falls, then pull the old seal out. Push each clip of the new seal home firmly, and check the door closes evenly against it all the way round.

Questions about this part

Where do I find my oven's model number?

Open the oven door and look around the frame or along the edge of the door for a rating label. It lists the model and often a separate product code. Send both through the parts enquiry form if you'd like us to confirm 2199041 suits your oven.
