If yours is split, perished or covered in mould that won't clean off, this is the replacement. Check the model on the label around the door opening to make sure it matches before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eLeaks and mould: when a Whirlpool door seal needs changing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe boot closes the gap between the outer tub and the front of the cabinet, so water stays inside the drum while it tumbles and spins. Over time the folds collect lint, detergent and moisture, and that constant damp leads to black mould, smells and eventually cracks or holes. A torn seal lets water escape, usually seen as puddles in front of the machine or drips down the door during the wash. Bra wires and coins caught in the folds can also cut it. Check every fold carefully with a torch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Whirlpool part 301G15A012205\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDoor boot gasket for front load washing machines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eListed for Whirlpool FWEB9002IG and FWEB9002IW\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitting the new boot\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnplug the machine and turn off the taps. The boot is usually held by one clamp ring on the cabinet side and another on the tub side, and the inner clamp can be fiddly, so take photos and note where the drain holes and any alignment marks sit. Seat the lip evenly all the way round before refitting the clamps, then run a rinse and check for leaks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I stop mould coming back on the new seal?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWipe the folds dry after washing, leave the door ajar between loads and run a hot maintenance wash regularly.
