Additional Information
The Kenmore Refrigerator Inline Water Filter (part number 3844609) is designed for refrigerators without a built-in water filter. This filter has NSF certifications 42 and 53, ensuring it effectively reduces lead, cysts, and chlorine taste and odor in your water. The filter uses activated carbon, a black powder, for purification.
After installing the filter, it is recommended to flush about 5 gallons of water through it to remove any fine, harmless carbon particles. This process typically takes around 10 minutes until the water runs clear.
Most manufacturers recommend replacing the water filter every 6 months. Sign up for our water filter subscription service and never worry about remembering to order it again.
