Abstract
A laundry appliance includes a drum that is rotationally operable within a wash tub. A chemistry receptacle is located proximate the drum. A chemistry dispensing module is coupled to the chemistry receptacle and has a prewash portion and a main wash portion. A first fluid inlet is coupled with the prewash portion and a second fluid inlet is coupled to the main wash portion. An outlet extends from the chemistry dispensing module to a laundry treating chamber. A prewash nozzle is coupled to the first fluid inlet and the prewash portion. The prewash nozzle includes an elongated arcuate body that follows a curvature of the prewash portion and defines a cyclonic flow path from the prewash nozzle to the outlet.
