Do I need any special equipment to replace this filter?- No, there is no need for any special equipment to replace this filter How often do I need to replace UKF8001 (Filter4) ?- It is recommended by Frigidaire that you replace this filter every 6-months or 750 gallons of usage (whichever comes first). In cases when there is an apparent change in taste or odor of your drinking water you may consider replacing it earlier. Do I need to turn the water supply off before replacing the filter?- No, you do not need to turn-off the water supply before replacing the filter. However it is a good idea to place a towel under the filter as there could be some drips while removing the filter If my Kenmore refrigerator is built by Whirlpool why is the filter model number is not the same?- Sears distribute parts and accessories under Kenmore brand through their store network and apply their own brand on the filters they sell. Their filter may or may not be built by Whirlpool. However Whirlpool -as the Original Manufacturer for your refrigerator and a world wide reputable brand- will ensure the highest standards for your refrigerator filter. |
