Setting the Controller

To reduce the risk of severe injury, illness, death, and/or property damage, read and follow all instructions. Use only Maytag Whole Home Water Filtration System authorized parts where required to repair and service the Maytag Whole Home Water Filtration System.

The Controller is a timing device that automatically opens the automatic drain valve to provide daily flushing and prevent accumulation of solid material that would result in premature System fouling.

The MAYTAG Whole Home Water Filtration System is equipped with either a Base Controller (Models MWF4100AWS and MFW4200AWS) or Advanced Controller (Model MWF4300AWS). The Advanced controller includes the added feature of automated inlet (solenoid) valve control. This feature provides the most thorough flushing by completely draining the system.

See Table 5 or 6 Controller Program Selection for a description of the various program choices available with each Controller.
