An ideal choice for households of 1-5, the Kenmore 40,000 Grain Water Softener is an effective and sophisticated system that can provide an array of benefits around the house. Built with intuitive technology that provides cost savings that other models can’t, the Kenmore 420’s IntelliSoft® technology tracks your water usage and regenerates beforehand, using only the salt and water it needs instead of operating on a more wasteful timer-based system. This saves you money in salt, water and energy costs and ensures you’ll never run out of soft water.
Designed with advanced electronic controls, you can monitor average daily water usage, current water flow, current salt level and more with the Kenmore 420.
Eliminate pesky mineral stains, enjoy healthier skin and hair and protect your water-using appliances by reducing hard water buildup. Soft water can also help you save money on detergent and soap and allows your water-using appliances to work more efficiently with fewer breakdowns and maintenance costs.
