Fridge water and ice filters

The fridge water and ice filter sits inside the fridge or behind the grille at the bottom.

Find the right fit

  1. Model number. Start with the fridge model number. It is on a label inside the fridge, on a side wall or under the crisper drawers. Filters are listed by the fridge brand and model they fit.
  2. Part number. Then the part number printed on the old filter. Copy it exactly; one letter can mean a different filter.
  3. Two or more retailers. Look the model or part number up at two or more retailers. Buy the one listed as a fit for your model, and check the printed size or part number on the box matches.

What to look for

  • A filter listed for your fridge model number.
  • The certification seal on the package says what the filter takes out of the water.
  • After a swap, run a few glasses of water through to clear the air out of the line.

When to swap

As often as the filter or the manual says, often every 6 months.
