Whirlpool 8193918 Accumulator for Dishwasher

The Whirlpool 8193918 Dishwasher Accumulator serves as a small reservoir within the dishwasher, collecting water during the wash cycle. Once a sufficient amount of water is collected, it directs the water to the dishwasher's spray arms, facilitating consistent water pressure throughout the cycle. This component is crucial for maintaining proper water flow, which impacts the cleaning process. A malfunctioning accumulator may lead to uneven water distribution to the spray arms, potentially causing inconsistent cleaning results and longer wash durations. Replacing a defective accumulator with the Whirlpool 8193918 part can help address these issues and maintain the dishwasher's operational efficiency.
