DAU1591218 Genuine Dishwasher Inlet Hose with Aqua Stop for De'Longhi Dishwashers, Water Supply Fill Hose

DAU1591218 is a genuine water inlet hose for De'Longhi dishwashers, an Aqua Stop type with a leak safety device built in. It connects the water tap to the dishwasher and carries the water for every fill. Inlet hoses vary in their fittings and in how the safety device connects to the machine, so check the number against your old hose or your dishwasher's parts list before buying.

Dishwasher not filling or leaking at the inlet hose

An Aqua Stop style hose has a safety device near the tap end that is designed to shut off the water if the hose leaks. Over time the hose can perish, crack at the fittings or get crushed behind the dishwasher, and the safety device itself can trip and stay shut. Signs include water around the tap or behind the machine, a dishwasher that won't fill or shows a water supply error, or a very long fill time. Check the tap is fully open and any inlet filter is clear before replacing the hose.

Fitting the inlet hose

Turn the tap off and unplug the dishwasher at the wall. Unscrew the old hose at the tap with a towel underneath, then disconnect it at the machine, which usually means removing the kick panel or sliding the dishwasher out. Fit the new hose with its sealing washers in place, keep it free of kinks and sharp bends, turn the tap on slowly and check both ends for leaks.

Questions about this part

Can I use a standard inlet hose instead?

If your dishwasher came with an Aqua Stop hose, a plain hose removes the leak protection, and on some models it won't connect the same way. Replacing like for like with DAU1591218 keeps the safety feature working as designed.
