Miele Heat pump dryer door filter 9164761 (Alternative) - Essential for your dryer
A properly functioning door filter is crucial to the efficiency and lifespan of your heat pump dryer. This Miele alternative door filter ensures that dust and dirt are captured before they enter your appliance, keeping performance at optimum levels and reducing wear and tear.

Longer drying times, as airflow is obstructed.

Regular replacement or cleaning of your door filter prevents these problems and extends the life of your dryer.
