Kenmore 9082 Refrigerator Water Filter
The Kenmore 9082 is designed for select Kenmore refrigerators with a compatible internal water-filtration system.

Check Compatibility Before Ordering
Kenmore 9082 does not fit every Kenmore refrigerator.
Kenmore refrigerators may use different water-filter designs depending on the refrigerator model.
Before ordering, check:
- The number printed on your current filter
- Your refrigerator model number
- Your refrigerator owner's manual
- The manufacturer's recommended filter
Look for:
9082
or
46-09082
on your existing filter information.
Not Sure Which Filter You Need?
Send USA Filter Shop:
- Your refrigerator model number, or
- A clear photo of your existing refrigerator filter
and we can help you check the correct before you order.
Important Information
The Kenmore 9082 is an older filter reference.
Sears PartsDirect currently lists EveryDrop Filter 2 – EDR2RXD1 as a manufacturer for part 9082 in many compatible refrigerator applications.
This does not mean that a Kenmore 9082 and an EveryDrop EDR2RXD1 should be presented as the same branded product.
If USA Filter Shop is selling a product labeled Kenmore 9082, the product page should identify it according to the actual packaging and supplier documentation.
If the product being shipped is EveryDrop EDR2RXD1, it should instead be listed as an EveryDrop product that replaces Kenmore 9082.
Filtration Performance
Kenmore states that the 9082 helps reduce:
- Lead
- Asbestos
- Chlorine taste and odor
- Sediment
- Selected pharmaceuticals
The substances reduced by a water filter are not necessarily present in every household's water supply.
Certification

- NSF/ANSI 42
- NSF/ANSI 53
- NSF/ANSI 401
- “Removes 99% of contaminants”

unless those claims are confirmed for the exact Kenmore 9082 inventory being sold through its packaging, official performance data sheet or certification record.
