The filter acts as a protection to the pump, helping to ensure it does not get damaged during the wash cycle. If you have a damaged filter, this replacement - from our great range of washing machine spares- could solve your issue and help ensure you move forward with a washing machine that offers smooth performance again, leaving you clothes washed and cleaned to their usual standards.
