The filter ball plays a critical role in maintaining your dishwasher’s performance. During each wash cycle, it moves to block or allow water flow as needed, helping to control the direction and pressure of water inside the dishwasher. This simple mechanism helps keep the wash system running smoothly by filtering out food particles and debris, preventing them from entering the pump and causing clogs.

Over time, filter balls can wear down or become damaged, leading to reduced water flow and less effective cleaning. Replacing the filter ball ensures that your dishwasher maintains proper water flow, protecting internal components and improving overall cleaning performance. Regular maintenance of small parts like this can help extend the life of your appliance.
