H0180300016 Genuine Dryer Door Seal for Fisher & Paykel, Haier Dryers DH8060P1 DH9060P1 DE8060P1 DC8060P1 DH9060P2 DE8060P2 HDHP80E1 HDC80E1 HDHP80A1

H0180300016 is the genuine door seal for a group of Fisher & Paykel and Haier clothes dryers. Fisher & Paykel models on file include the DE8060P1, DE8060P2, DC8060P1, DH8060P1 and DH9060P1, and on the Haier side it suits the HDC80E1, HDHP80A1 and HDHP80E1. Fit one when the old seal has torn, flattened, hardened or come away from the door.

Why a worn dryer door seal slows drying

This seal closes the gap between the door and the front of the dryer while the drum turns. It keeps warm, moist air travelling the way it should, through the lint filter and the drying system, instead of escaping into the laundry. Once it splits, flattens or pulls away, air leaks out around the door and drying times creep up. Other signs are fluff collecting around the door opening or on the floor, a warm draught at the door during a cycle, and small items catching in the gap. A seal that has gone hard or brittle with age is worth replacing before it tears.

Changing the dryer door seal

Unplug the dryer before you start. Note how the old seal sits and which way it faces, then ease it off and clean away lint and residue from the mounting surface. Fit the new seal evenly all the way around without stretching it, and make sure it sits flat. Close the door and check it meets the seal along its full length before you run a load.
