The General Electric WE18X10021 Dryer Grill Assembly directs airflow within the dryer to support proper ventilation and temperature control during operation. This component works by allowing heated air to move evenly through the drum while preventing lint and debris from entering sensitive internal areas. Installed inside the dryer cabinet near the air exhaust path, it integrates with the blower housing and duct system to maintain controlled airflow. As part of the drying system, it supports efficient moisture removal, helps reduce the risk of overheating, and contributes to consistent drying results. Replacing a damaged grill assembly restores proper air circulation, supporting stable and reliable performance during regular drying cycles.
