Refrigerator Water Filter Specifications

This is a single OEM water filter used in refrigerators to remove impurities and particles from water that goes through the water and ice dispenser. It is used for reducing cysts, turbidity, lead, mercury, herbicides, and more. If your icemaker is not making ice, not dispensing ice, dispenses too little ice, or there is leakage and the fridge is making loud noises, replacing the water filter may be the solution. This filter is located in the front, top right of side-by-side refrigerators. You will know it is time for a new filter when the light on the freezer door dispenser lights up red, or after 6 months (200 gallons) of use. No tools are required for this easy repair. First, press the release button to pull out the old water filter and push and lock in the new water filter. Run water through the dispenser for about 3 minutes to prime the filter for use. Dispose of the water or use it to water plants. Press the indicator for 3-10 seconds to reset after this repair is complete. This carbon-based filter measures 6 x 3 x 7 Inches and is white plastic.

Water leaking from water filter base.

Tried replacing water filter first. It stilled leaked, so I removed the covers to gain access to the water filter base. After cutting the two hoses to remove the old base, I simply slid the hoses into the new base, screwed it into place, replaced the covers, and then reinstalled the new water filter. No more leak!

We considered tape and glue, but we knew that it would look like crap and wouldn't last. Fortunately the bin had a part number on it, so it was easy to order the correct part and it fit perfectly.

I have a Frigidaire refrigerator the water filter pops out after a few mins. We installed the filter nine months ago does this mean we need to replace the filter?
Chris Boyle Profile
HI Michael, Thank you for your question. A filter should be replaced every 6 months. If the filter was installed nine months ago, you will need to replace it. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Connell - For model number GLRS237ZAB7
December 27, 2017
I am trying to assist my son-in-law in replacing his refrigerator water filter. He indicated that the filter was working fine without leaking until he installed the replacement filter (crystala filter #cf2). The replacement filter appears to be the right one for the refrigerator, and it is a simple task, but i am also experiencing a leak when i put in the replacement filter. Unfortunately, i don't have the old filter, so i cannot compare it to the new filter he purchased. Would you have any suggestions what could be causing the problem?
Chris Boyle Profile
Hi Connell, Thank you for your question. It is likely the generic filter is just not correct for the appliance. This can sometimes happen with generic filters. I would suggest replacing it with an OEM filter, which is the part that you are inquiring on. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.

Chris Boyle Profile
Hi Sandy, Thank you for the question. You may need to reset the light.Press and Hold the Reset Button Until the Indicator Light Flashes and resets. Next flush a couple of gallons of water through your new filter. Hope this helps!

Water drips heavily from the section under where the water filter is. We have to keep a little container to catch the water.

Why does water exit spigot when icemaker is calling for water?I changed out the valve with new
Chris Boyle Profile
Hello Don, thank you for reaching out. If the water tube to the ice maker is misaligned or blocked, water may not be able to flow into the ice maker. This will eventually cause water to leak. We would recommend checking it, the part number is PS7783975. We hope this sorts out your problem!

Hello Barbara, thank you for contacting us. This is normally caused during the defrost cycle. The water then drains down into the Evaporator Drain Pan under the appliance. We hope this helps!
