9082 Water Filter
The short answer on the 9082
Kenmore 9082 (469082, 04609082000) is the Sears catalog number for the EveryDrop Filter 2 cartridge — the slot that current numbering serves as EDR2RXD1/EDR2RXD2. It belongs to the same 46-90xx Sears series as 9081, 9083, 9084 and 9085; the last digit tracks the EveryDrop filter position, so 9082 = Filter 2. It carries No NSF claim in our file. Replacement path: Kenmore 9082 = Filter 2 slot (EDR2RXD2 line).
Our library cross-checks this cartridge against 332 refrigerator models. Install time: 5 minutes, no tools. The 90xx Sears series maps digit-for-digit onto EveryDrop positions (9081→1, 9082→2, 9083→3, 9084→4, 9085→5) — the fastest sanity check when a Kenmore plate gives you nothing but the number.
9082 vs EDR2RXD2 vs EDR2RXD1 — same bay or different?
| Part | Role | RFID chip | NSF claims | Replacement path |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 9082 | Sears catalog number (46-9082) | No chip | No NSF claim in our file | Filter 2 slot, Sears dress |
| EDR2RXD2 | Current Filter 2 number | No chip | No NSF claim in our file | The production number |
| EDR2RXD1 | First EveryDrop Filter 2 | No chip | No NSF claim in our file | Superseded by EDR2RXD2 |
| 9081 | Sears number, Filter 1 slot | No chip | 42+53+401 (series claim) | Different bay — do not cross-order |
Certification lines above are traced to our verified evidence file (part-number × version facts); third-party compatibles usually carry less.
What a 9082 should cost
We do not print an OEM list price for the 9082 — Sears catalog numbers stopped carrying published list pricing, and a guessed anchor is worse than none. Check the maker's own parts store for the genuine price; third-party compatibles cluster at $8–15 per cartridge (mostly NSF/ANSI 42 only) with a premium 42+53 tier above them.
ClearFit pricing follows a competitor −10% formula and is published per SKU once the product line goes live — no placeholder prices on this page.

The plate inside the fresh-food compartment carries your fridge's model number. Every system in the family is listed at the Whirlpool filter hub.
Swap it in 5 minutes
- Press the release tab and draw the spent cartridge straight down and out — a couple of drips is normal.
- Match the new cartridge's keying to the slot; it seats in only one orientation.
- Push until the latch catches with a click.
- Flush 1–2 gallons through the dispenser to clear carbon fines, then hold filter reset until the light goes out.
What the 9082 is actually certified to remove
No NSF claim stated in our evidence file. Honest framing for buyers: compatibles split into 42-only (taste, chlorine, sediment) and 42+53 (adds tested lead and cyst reduction) — that second tier is the one worth paying for. A claim is a part-number × version fact, and NSF listings move with annual re-tests — verify in the certified-product database before you rely on one. And note the PFOA/PFOS reduction claim sits under NSF/ANSI 53 (P473 protocol), never under 401, whatever a listing says.
Is the Kenmore 9082 the same as EveryDrop Filter 2?
Yes — 9082 is Sears dress for the Filter 2 cartridge line; the current production numbers are EDR2RXD2 and its predecessor EDR2RXD1. Same bay across all three.
Why does the Sears number end in the filter position?
The 46-90xx series was numbered to track the EveryDrop positions: 9081 is Filter 1, 9082 is Filter 2, through 9085. It makes cross-checking a Kenmore plate quick once you know the pattern.
Does the 9082 water filter have a chip?
No. No cartridge in the Sears-numbered Whirlpool line carries electronics — an RFID-locked refrigerator filter is a GE RPWFE-line feature.
What claims should a compatible 9082 carry?
Our evidence file holds no NSF claim for this slot's OEM cartridge, so verify against the NSF database rather than assuming. In compatibles the working bar stays 42+53 — 42 for taste and chlorine, 53 for tested lead and cyst reduction.
