Additional Information

The Refrigerator Water Filter (9085) by Kenmore is designed to provide clean, fresh-tasting water by reducing the presence of common contaminants such as lead, chlorine, and sediment. The filter typically has a lifespan of about 6 months or 300 gallons, depending on water quality and usage. Regular replacement of the filter ensures the best possible water quality and flow rate. To install, locate the filter compartment in the refrigerator, remove the old cartridge by turning it counterclockwise, and insert the new filter by aligning it with the filter housing and turning it clockwise until it locks into place. No special tools are required, and the process can be completed in minutes. Always flush the system with 2-3 gallons of water after installing a new filter to remove any carbon fines or air bubbles.

Please ensure this part is compatible with your refrigerator model before purchasing. If you experience a decrease in water flow or an unusual taste in the water or ice, it might be time to replace the water filter with a new one.
