How To: Whirlpool/KitchenAid/Maytag Oven Insulation WPW10208653

[@melissahuber9741]

Thank you so much for sharing! I have taken apart my stove, replaced insulation and put everything back together. Now to bring it back inside and try to plug it in😅

[@appliancepartspros]

You are welcome! Glad you were able to fix your issue! If there is anything we can help you with in the future please let us know.

[@jason60chev]

Except for taking the whole range apart.....That was pretty easy!!!!! Seriously.....A rather easy task. I have a 1956 Stove that I am working on. I have new insulation and it should install very similar to this. Thanks! Please do videos on additional range/oven repair tasks.

[@appliancepartspros]

hello! what is the best insulation to be use for oven?

[@michaelkeilly2452]

Do you have a similar video for GE ranges?

great video but what about the REAR insulation??

Can it catch fire the white stuff

Did you ever find an answer? I'm in the same situation. Can't find mention of it anywhere.

Is there a separate video somewhere that shows how to replace the back insulation??

Did you ever figure this out?

Hello to the mr. Simon. The man thats doing the work. Please can you tell me what kind on insulation is in those types of stoves?? id be greatly thankful. You have a blessed day!

[@chrisrezac1089]

Great video! I’ve got all the insulation out and it was burrowed with burnt hair in it but no mouse body. We have an LG and there is a metal box that’s under the cavity that has two smalls holes at the bottom. We’re assuming the mouse went from insulation and maybe in that box. Not sure how to look inside or access it. Any idea/advice?

[@appliancepartspros]

We'd be happy to help you figure that out, but we'll need some additional information about the model and the problem. You can give us a call at 1-877-477-7278 or you can chat us at our website: www.appliancepartspros.com/. We will need the model number for the appliance, so that we can look up diagrams and information about your specific unit to give you accurate advice. You can look here on our website to help you find the model number: www.appliancepartspros.com/modelnumber_locator.aspx

[@CW86228]

Put stainless steel wool in the cavity they can't bite through it and it won't rust

[@wendyfudge8202]

Can you replace insulation in a split level oven the same or is it harder

[@carlosmoreno9094]

Thank you for sharing. 💝

[@Lirabythesea]

Will this insulation work for a Frigidaire Electric Range Smoothtop LFEF3054TFE? Ordering now so that I can have it in time for the holidays.

[@denisenorman6307]

Go to their website and enter the model. Super handy to knowwhatwill work. Their customer service is very helpful too. I've used Appliance Part Pros a few times now - great company. I have to replace mine too (mice 🤢). Good luck!

[@sarabowler7319]

Nice have made a mess in my insulation and it smells like a campfire!! Can I clean the surface before adding the new insulation?

[@appliancepartspros]

It would definitely be a good idea to clean it before adding new insulation.

[@ame3690]

Hi Sara, our oven had the same mice issue and im wondering if you ever gave the insulation replacement a go? If so, how was it?

[@paulachiotti5224]

I read that a baking soda paste with water dissolves mouse urine.

[@adriangarcia577]

do you have online where you can buy fiber for the gas range

[@dr.jones.3832]

I can't find any videos for a Kenmore stove bottom insulation removal! Good grief!

[@appliancepartspros]

What is your model number?

[@MonkeyDBraffy]

Hi. My stove is a GE model JBS10DFBB and I noticed that it has like an aluminum like foil around the insulation material. Do I need to buy that silver covering or is the white foam enough?? What’s the measurement that I need? Thanks

[@appliancepartspros]

I can't find that model in our system, but the insulation should be sufficient.

[@irishfan9891]

The top of my electric range (coils) gets really hot when the oven is running around 400. Is it safe to ADD insulation to that which is already there? Brand new range. Not thrilled, but it looks like all the new ones have this problem.

[@appliancepartspros]

We generally recommend sticking to factory specs. Ovens do have heat vents, which can be under an eye or at the back of the stove top. This small vent at the top of the oven cavity allows some of the hot oven air to escape to the room which in turn allows more air to enter the oven cavity. This continual cycle allows the oven to heat uniformly from bottom to top. If this is what's causing the heat, additional insulation won't help, and blocking the venting will decrease the functionality of the oven. It seems counter intuitive to let some of the hot air out of the oven, but without that circulation, food would take longer to cook.

[@randyjohnson9772]

@@appliancepartspros why not use recirculating fans instead of venting the heat?? Seems like common sense ; are there appliances using this idea already??

[@xxxxMaddnesSxxxx]

@@randyjohnson9772 yes. Convection ovens use that method

[@mrsrbhayes1707]

Mercy. I have a 36 in gas Tappan. Is this doable?

[@RK-nl1hn]

Hi is there an alternative insulation mice will not use?

[@appliancepartspros]

We apologize but we are not aware of any replacements for insulation.

[@christinek2006]

We are doing this as we speak.... I wonder if it would be ill advised to spray your new insulation down with bleach to deter the mice from taking up new residence? I have read that it's bad idea to add any kind of wire mesh onto the back of the stove or anything like that.

[@appliancepartspros]

We wouldn't recommend spraying it with bleach. You could try peppermint oil around the area, which is a nontoxic rodent deterrent. Plug up any holes in the areas surrounding wiring conduits to keep them from getting in.

[@jacktherailfan3264]

Christine Kirk Don't use bleach. Borax is a good mice repellent and will work with ants too.

[@christined9015]

Good idea, Jack. My husband is a rail fan also. More like nut! We put some little tin foil boats filled with peppermint in open areas on the insulation. So far, so good.... but it's also not winter any longer. Borax is worth a try. I figured bleach might be dangerous when heated; unsure if borax is also dangerous.

[@DarthJoeyTheWise]

What's the other screw for?

[@jillduffy8919]

how do i figure out what size instulation?

[@truckervance]

Is there a reason you used a screw driver instead of a drill? and should the gas line be disconnected before doing this? Yesterday, I asked my landlord to replace the fiberglass due to mice droppings and as he bemoaned and detailed the number of screws that have to be removed he told me there was nothing he could do. Needless to say I'll soon be paying someone to do this job and will deduct the cost from the rent.

No, it is not a simple repair.

[@amonm6594]

oven insulation doesn't have asbestos?? no respirator no gloves

[@zanchesdelamancha]

I just asked your question on their website; this is the answer: "The part is made up from fiberglass, the part should not contain asbestos. If you are allergic then you could wear a respirator, but it isn't necessary." I Hope it helps.

[@moquiti]

No asbestos, however fiberglas insulation does shed, and the fibers, if inhaled, are a health risk. So the installer "should" be wearing gloves and at least a dust mask, just like professional insulation installers do, and should clean the work area afterwards.

[@Z-Ack]

Eh.. the fiberglass will actually put little microscopic cuts in the bronchials inside your lungs and will allow more oxygen to be able to be absorbed. But if you get too much its called mesothelioma.. thats when theres a mezzanine constructed on your thalamus and either iowa our Oklahoma will be able to cure it...

[@donnieleach3180]

Some day someone will design these so that mice cannot get in.

​@@appliancepartspros that item is backordered. can you tell me what this particular type of insulation is called? I'm gonna see if I can find it wholesale.

[@appliancepartspros]

We aren't provided an exact eta for backordered parts. Once the order is placed, on average, it can take 7-14 business days to ship out. This is not a guaranteed time frame, it is just an estimate. Unfortunately, the manufacturer has not provided the specs for the part.

[@Jimo225]

so , how do you know if a mouse made a nest in it? does the oven not hold the heat? Also, will one little mouse nest really make a difference in that big sheet of insulation? I don't understand the physics involved here.

[@alishagay2482]

Jimo225 you can smell them when you cut your stove on they have made a nest in mine and the smell is awful

[@JerryMcGuire777]

We turned our oven on to bake dinner a couple weeks ago. And the STENCH was HORRIBLE! Now we're trying to find replacement insulation for our Samsung oven.

[@Z-Ack]

First go get a small glass aquarium and fill the bottom with insulation. Then go get a feeder mouse from pet shop. Next put mouse in insulation with a little food and water. Put a lid on it and leave it for a week. After a week go take the cover off and smell, look at how much the mouse had torn up the insulation, look at all the poo and pee everywhere.. then notice how a decaying mouse makes the insulation... then go make a home for mice in your stove... lol
