Description

The Whirlpool WHES40E 40, 000 grain water softener is ideal for families of 1-6+ people looking for a reliable way to soften their water. It eliminates embarrassing mineral stains, uses less detergent in the wash for cleaner, brighter and softer fabrics, and helps your water-using appliances last longer by allowing them to run more efficiently. Soft water also helps to keep your hair and skin feel healthy and soft. Whirlpool water softeners employ demand initiated regeneration meaning the system will only regenerate based on your hardness level and how much water you actually use, this results in significant salt and water savings. It will not waste water by regenerating (like competitor models) while you are on vacation and you will not run out of soft water if you use more water than usual. Whirlpool water softeners also come with simple to program electronics and include a low salt indicator light and work on city water or well water. Over time, water softeners also keep your water using appliances (water heaters, dishwashers, washing machines, etc. ) working efficiently, last longer and save energy. All Whirlpool water softeners come standard with a 1-year manufacturers parts and labor , 3-year limited electronics , and 10-year limited on the tanks. The full parts and labor can be extended to 2 years with the purchase of 3 bottles of Whirlpool WHEWSC water softener cleanser within the first year of ownership (sold separately). All systems include installation kit, bypass valve and come ready to connect to 1 inch male pipe thread. Questions? Call the helpline at (866) 986-3223. High flow valve connects to plumbing up to 1 ¼” in diameter. Note: Due to variances in production and assembly, the water softener valve height may vary by up to 1/2" from an existing water treatment system, including existing Whirlpool models. High-flow valve maintains great water pressure (connects to up to 1” plumbing). This potential change in valve height will not affect system performance. PRODUCT DESIGN MAY VARY.

    • Seems to work well (replacement of similar unit)
Style: Hybrid Softener / Filtration System
Our previous unit which has been in our house since it was built in 2006 had the valve fail and so we thought we would upgrade to this unit. I was very surprised to open the box to see the exact same unit when I opened the box… it is 100% identical but has a different logo on top (our old one was GE). Even the screen and button power up the same way. I am not convinced this unit filters anything as stated. That being said, install was incredibly easy (basically swapping the same unit). It returned our water to softened water as I procrastinated for two weeks once our old one broke. My wife said the dishwasher wasn’t cleaning which is how I found out that our old softener has stopped working. We are in Minnesota and have incredibly hard water (it was off the chart on the test strip that came with the new softener) which makes me think that we have a hardness score of ~30-35. That being said, there are 5 of us and we shower and have to do laundry every day and the unit seems to keep up just fine. ... show more

    • Easy Install

Originally bought a similar Kenmore softener to replace a 12 year old Kenmore that served me well and just wore out. The Kenmore arrived with severe production damage. Not shipping damage but severe damage that occurred when they were building it. The fact that the unit somehow made it out the door for shipping told me all I needed to know about Kenmore quality control. I returned the Kenmore and purchased the Whirlpool. Arrived in perfect condition and included detailed, easy to understand instillation instructions including a video. Follow the instructions. Don’t think it’s okay to “skip that step “. Installation was easy and the softener is working great after 6 weeks. Highly recommend. ... show more

This is my first water softener. I live in a rural area on a community well and the hardness is over 120 gpg (grains per gallon), which is pretty hard. I have a filter system, but it wasn’t enough. After a lot of research and talking to plumbers an neighbors with softeners, I picked this Whirlpool unit. It arrived promptly, and the shipping box was in OK condition. But, when I opened it up, I found a lot of issues. The case was pretty scraped up and the bottom was sort or warped. The brine tank was rattling around in the salt tank a the input/output valve was turned sideways inside the cover. When I opened the cover, I found that the circuit board cover was off and the board itself was lying loosely in the cover. The plug was bent and there was some damaged insulation on the power wire. I initially decided to return it, but it would have been a lot of work to get it upstairs and shipped and then wait for a new one. I put the circuit board and display back in place and fixed the other things that I could see. When I plugged it in, it worked so I decided to try it out instead of returning it. The actual hookup was easy (other than running the pex lines through the ceiling). I used 3/4 pex line and shark bite fittings in it (so that it would be easy to disconnect if it didn’t work). The instructions were fairly straightforward, although there is no mention anywhere as to how much salt to put in. I used 2 bags of pellet salt, but shoul have bought 5 or 6. I programmed everything and ran a recharge as per the instructions and it all went well. The next morning however, I noticed that the salt tank was almost full of water (up to 6 on the fill level). I removed the cover and looked it over carefully and noted that the seal between the brine tank and valve body was leaking. I was going to return it again at this point, but decided to dive in further. Found the instructions on servicing the Distributor O-ring kit and took the valve body off off the brine tank. I found that the lowermost O-ring (under the filter screen) was out of place and covered in loose charcoal. I cleaned everything, lubricated the O-rings and put it all back together. So far, no leaks and the unit works perfectly. I will say that installation is relatively easy. Be sure that you have feed lines and drain options wherever you’re going to install this. I will also say that Whirlpool’s website is very good with lots of clear instructions and information. The softener seems to work fine, and there is a significant, measurable difference in the water hardness. Time will tell if this is a lemon, but I do have the extended warranty 🤞. ... show more
