Whirlpool 4378968 Dishwasher Floor Mounting Kit

Product Description

The WHIRLPOOL 4378968 is a dishwasher floor mounting kit designed to secure a built-in dishwasher to the floor of the cabinet opening. This kit provides the hardware needed to anchor the appliance in place, preventing movement or tipping during operation. It is used during initial installation or as a replacement when original mounting components are lost or damaged. Installation is typically performed by a plumber, appliance technician, or experienced tradesperson as part of a full dishwasher install or replacement service.

This floor mounting kit is intended for use with Whirlpool dishwashers that require floor-mount anchoring rather than top-mount or side-mount methods. It is suited for installations where the underside of the countertop is not accessible or not compatible with top-mount bracket systems, making floor anchoring the appropriate method. Refer to the dishwasher service manual to confirm whether a floor mount configuration is specified for the unit being serviced.

Key Features

• Provides floor-level anchoring to stabilize the dishwasher during operation
• Designed as an OEM replacement for original Whirlpool mounting hardware
• Suitable for installations where top-mount access to the countertop underside is not available
• Replaces lost or damaged factory floor mounting components

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement floor mounting kit for Whirlpool dishwashers requiring floor-mount installation. Consult the appliance model documentation to confirm fitment before ordering.

Installation Notes

Shut off power to the dishwasher at the circuit breaker before beginning any installation work. A plumber or appliance technician should perform this installation in accordance with local codes and the manufacturer service documentation. Use appropriate fasteners for the floor material present, whether wood subfloor or another substrate. Do not over-tighten mounting hardware, as this may stress the appliance base or frame.
