I need the lint filter assembly for my Supra SW5L30D washer/dryer combo. I have searched my local area and the internet and I can't find any listings for these parts. Please tell if you know of a place where I can get this. Thanks----Bonnie Griffith [email protected]
Do you need it because you have a leak that can't be solved unless you get a new part? I have an SW5L65D and thought I somehow ruined the gasket assembly--mainly the rubber O-Ring. BUt I didn't... A very helpful W/D appliance guy who knew nothing about Supras came over and figured it out. Maybe if your lint filter assembly sounds like mine it can help you:
On mine, the lint filter contraption consists of a two-part white plastic circular cap with male and female connection; the female half rests on top of the rubber o-ring gasket (a gasket means an object that prevents leakage), with then sits on top of the end of the rectangular plastic filter.
The only thing that holds them all together is when they're pushed into the filter area, which is long cylindrical tube with 3 openings: the exiting water that flows over the filter, a drain and the cap/gasket.
The repair guy took at look at it and realized two things...
1) the rubber gasket attached to the lint filter expands when pressure is put on it. The rubber gasket needs to be pushed into the hole completely so it expands to seal against leakage when the additional pressure of screwing the plastic cap "locks it" in.
His first 2 tries of this didn't work, even with a wrench, and water still bubbled out.
2) He then found there was a small piece of metal from some jewelry that was sitting on the lip, preventing a complete "seal". Once that piece was out, it was an airtight seal when it was "locked in".
Apparently, when removing the lint filter, too, the cap should be partially unscrewed; ie., "unlocked" and then the filter removed, instead of completely unscrewing the male cap (which then leaves the cap's female connector, rubber gasket and filter stuck in the machine.)
I hope this info helps if you're really looking for information on how to stop a leaky Supra SW5L65D. If you find someone who has parts, I'd appreciate knowing too, as the day may one day come when I need that info

You can get parts for the Supra SW5L30D from EdgeStar (can't figure out if EdgeStar bought Supra, or if Supra just changed their name or what). 866-319-5473. I've been able to get the parts I've needed, though they're not the most efficient operation. One time I had to wait for someone to get back from vacation before the part could ship...

Based on information posted on the internet sites, it is very likely that Supra company has closed down. So it is best to contact the sales outlet you bought the washer/ dryer from. They may be able to tell you who they sold the service facility to in India. In USA the appliance maker EdgeStar Product services the Supra products.
