  • Manufacturer: Whirlpool
  • Category: Washer
  • Primary Function: Forms a watertight seal between the washer tub and the door to prevent leaks

Additional Information

The washer door boot (part number WP8181850) prevents water from leaking around the door opening during wash cycles. Over time, the boot can wear, tear, or develop mold and mildew buildup, leading to leaks or unpleasant odors in your washer.

Common symptoms of a faulty door boot include visible cracks, water pooling around the door area, or mold that cannot be cleaned away. Replacing the boot restores a tight seal and helps keep your laundry area dry.

Always unplug the washer before starting the repair to avoid electrical hazards, and wear gloves to protect your hands while working with the rubber and spring clamps. Refer to your service manual for step-by-step instructions specific to your model.

Part fit perfectly and was relatively easy to install. Use small clamps to hold the retraining strap down as you work it around the outer boot. No more leaks.

Perfect fit
November 09, 2020|Will, San Diego, CA

Took about 45 minutes to install using basic tools (screwdriver, torx, socket wrench). The boot gasket was a good fit - not too loose and not too tight. It went on easily without any major pulling or stretching. The hardest part was putting the spring clamp back on. Was able to do it myself - but would have been slightly easier with two people

Worth doing yourself
September 29, 2019|lmack, Prairieville, LA

Watch how to videos before proceeding. Do consider ordering the wire circular springs that hold it in place the same time you replace the boot.
