I am not familiar with the Whirlpool, however I do LIKE Whirlpool products in general. The waterboss was my most problematic water softener, just don't choose waterboss. Hope that helps a little.

Shirley...I'm going to save you some time. I've owned both the WaterBoss 700 and the Whirlpool 44,000 grain water softeners. It's simple...buy the Whirlpool and avoid the WaterBoss. The WaterBoss caused extensive damage to my finished basement when the resin tank failed (within its warranty period) and flooded said basement. The Whirlpool has required nothing except refilling salt and has performed perfect. Buy the Whirlpool and do not buy the WaterBoss.

I used it. We have fairly soft water but it varies according to which reservoir is sourced. These units, i understand, are vulnerable to lime deposits so you have to back flush with vinegar periodically I opted for a filter too and you use these valves to change the cartridge. So if you have really soft water maybe you can avoid the extra expense and or work puzzle solving on the installation.

This is a replacement filter cartridge for a Whirlpool WHKF-IMPLUS Water Filtration System. It is installed in the external water line going to the refrigerator.

Contact the GE corporation for this info, or ask the place that you purchased your unit at. I use the "Smartwater" filter in my unit and it works great!

One that doesn't use enough water to clean your clothes. I have a newer whirlpool top load and absolutely hate it. I do a couple of articles at a time and select the large load try to fool the sensor by having something stick up as high as possible just to make sure everything gets wet lol. I can use a pod if I put it in first. They will stain your clothes if you add them later. I did have a front load GE -HE that did a decent job. It went when we sold the house. Really miss it just toss in the pod and away you go!

This system is designed primarily for well water applications. If you have a city water supply consider the HMF2SdgC. Generally, you would locate this system downstream of a water softener. Water softeners require a certain amount of pressure in order to lift and regenerate the media during back-washing. If you have extreme amounts of sediment that you wish to keep out of your water softener then get our HMF-CYO whole house filter and configure it with sediment filter(s), and use it as a pre-filter. Another reason why you would place this system after the water softener is to prolong the life of the (expensive) IRON filter. Water softeners remove up to 5 ppm of iron in the course of softening the water. The IRON filter included with this system is good for reducing iron, manganese and hydrogen sulfide up to 3 ppm combined contaminant load. You must know this value before buying this product to ensure a reasonable IRON filter lifecycle and thus your satisfaction. This filter should not be used if the combined iron, manganese, and hydrogen sulfide contaminant load of your private well exceeds 3 ppm or if there are IRON BACTERIA present. In any case -- please email us your water report. You should have a water report before buying any water treatment equipment so that you buy the right equipment for the job. This system's 4 gradient sediment filter is the best filter available in terms of its dirt holding capacity, flow rate, and broad range of particles filtered. It features 4 separate gradients of particle filtration -- 25 microns, 10 microns, 5 micron and 1 micron to allow for maximum dirt holding capacity while still allowing a high flow rate.

water filtration systems come in all shapes and sizes. What the water softener/conditioner is going to do for you is protect your fixtures specifically from damage caused by hard water. filtration systems are usually to protect yourself from the chemicals in the water not the calcium, which is actually an essential mineral humans need to survive. that's one of the reasons the Nuvo h2o system is beneficial, it doesn't remove the minerals that are good for you but simply allows them not to cling to your fixtures. hope this helps

Although I have owned several Waterboss water softeners (currently in 2 homes), I have not had the misfortune of having to repair or replace any parts. I suppose you can purchase them directly from the factory.

Sorry, I M not familiar with Sears Water Softeners. If the Sears unit uses a Fleck type head, it will work.

I did not buy Whirlpool or Amana because one particular complaint crops up repeatedly about this model and, when I approached Whirlpool to find out if they had made some sort of running change to improve reliability, they stopped communicating with me. Life is short and I need a new fridge so I did not become expert on the issue. You can see what I'm talking about by going through the reviews. That problem (yours, as well?) manifests when unwanted water freezes in the freezer and then leaks out, sometimes causing considerable floor damage. So...look carefully at the floor of your freezer for excess water.

The way I undersand it is this stuff mixxs in with the salt brine to give the resin a REAL good cleaning. It should work regardless of your water sorce or brand of softener. I just replace the resin in my 15 year old GE soften, WOW what a differance, the sucker works like new!

I have a softener and a reverse osmosis system so I use water from the RO system for the iron. I used the same filtered water for Rowenta that the new one replaced and never had any problems or had to clean it the 10 years we owned it. If I were going to use bottled water I would use distilled. It's cheaper and purer than spring water.

I use everyday living water softener pellets from dillons 99.7/00 pure salt.
