Refrigerator filters are not universal. The location of the filter and the type of filter you need depend on the brand and model. How you change it will also be exclusive to your fridge. Need help finding the right fridge filter? Use our Filter Finder Tool to find the one that you need.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"ffbutton\" href=\"https:\/\/www.filtersfast.com\/Refrigerator-Water-Filters-cat.asp\" rel=\"nofollow\">Find Your Refrigerator Filter<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a short video to show you how it works.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2OCOpwEWEoA?si=ybJvr7FVPEIwuKrk\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>What benefits do refrigerator water filters provide?<\/h2>\n<p>If your refrigerator has a water dispenser, this is a convenient and cost-effective water filtration option. Refrigerator water filters are available in different certifications that indicate what contaminants they will reduce.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>NSF42: Validate claims that the filter will affect taste, odor, color, and other aesthetic effects, including reducing chlorine and particulate matter will be reduced.<\/li>\n<li>NSF53: In addition to taste, odor, color, and other aesthetic effects, this certification validates claims that the filter will reduce contaminants considered potential health hazards, such as microbiological, chemical, or particulate (cysts) in nature, will be reduced.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Please read our blog to learn more about<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/nsf-standards\/\"> NSF Standards<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>A refrigerator water filter with an NSF certification will improve water quality. However, choosing a good filter is not enough; you must also commit to regularly changing the filter. Refrigerator water filters should be changed every six months to ensure the best quality water.<\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2>How to Install a Refrigerator Filter<\/h2>\n<p>How to install a refrigerator filter will differ depending on the make and model of the refrigerator and the type of filter. For exact instructions, consult your owner&#8217;s manual or the instructions included with your filter.<\/p>\n<p>Installing your filter incorrectly can void your refrigerator&#8217;s warranty and damage the filter housing.<\/p>\n<p>You can check out our blog for <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/refrigerator-filter-installation-troubleshooting-tips\/\">troubleshooting tips for installing your fridge filter<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2>How to Reset Your Refrigerator Water Filter Change Light<\/h2>\n<p>The filter indicator light notifies you when it\u2019s time to change the water filter. However, this light does not automatically reset when you replace the water filter, so you must manually reset it.<\/p>\n<p>For most refrigerators, the filter change light is on a timer that lasts 6-18 months. The change filter light does not indicate the quality of your filter. We recommend changing your refrigerator filter at least every 6 months to ensure you always have purified, great-tasting water.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a list of how to reset the water filter light based on your refrigerator\u2019s manufacturer:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.filtersfast.com\/Amana-Replacement-Refrigerator-Water-Filter-Cat.asp\">Amana Refrigerator<\/a>: Press and hold the Auto and Dispenser Lock buttons until the water filter status indicator light flashes.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.filtersfast.com\/Frigidaire-Refrigerator-Water-Filters-cat.asp\">Frigidaire Refrigerator:<\/a> Press the Options button until all the options show, then scroll to the water filter and hold the set button to reset it.

In that case, we recommend checking the instructions in your refrigerator&#8217;s owner\u2019s manual or searching it on the manufacturer&#8217;s website.<\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2>How to Flush Your Refrigerator Filter<\/h2>\n<p>Refrigerator water filters are made of carbon media; some carbon dust will likely be in your water the first few times you dispense it.<\/p>\n<p>Is drinking carbon dust terrible for you? Drinking carbon flecks will not harm you but make your water taste bitter. If you continue seeing carbon floating in your water after flushing a few gallons through the filter, you may have a defective filter.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1254\" height=\"836\" class=\"size-full wp-image-20255 aligncenter\" style=\"width: 100%; height: 400px; object-fit: cover;\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/iStock-1156889812.jpg\" alt=\"woman getting water out of fridge\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/iStock-1156889812.jpg 1254w, https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/iStock-1156889812-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/iStock-1156889812-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/iStock-1156889812-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1254px) 100vw, 1254px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Check out our blog post for more tips on<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/how-to-flush-your-refrigerator-filter\/\"> flushing your refrigerator water filter<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>What if your refrigerator water filter doesn&#8217;t have a change filter light?<\/h3>\n<p>If your refrigerator is not equipped with a change filter indicator light, here&#8217;s what you can do.<\/p>\n<p>Set a reminder to change your filter every 6 months.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>What if there is water dripping immediately after dispensing?<\/h3>\n<p>You do not need to be alarmed if you notice water dripping shortly after dispensing. After you have installed the new filter, there are most likely air bubbles in the water line that can cause drippage. If you continue to notice dripping water, this could be a sign that your water lines are clogged, need to be replaced, or have a more serious problem.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>Clogged Filter? Here&#8217;s What to Do.<\/h3>\n<p>If you suspect that your filter is clogged, you can remove it. You do not have to have a filter installed to use the water dispenser on your fridge. Removing the filter will automatically switch it into bypass mode, and you can still use the dispenser. Remember, using the refrigerator without a filter means your water will not be filtered. Use at your discretion.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>What if your refrigerator water filter doesn&#8217;t have a change filter light?<\/h3>\n<p>If your refrigerator is not equipped with a change filter indicator light, here&#8217;s what you can do:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>If you notice a decrease in water flow or your water isn&#8217;t coming out as cold as usual, these could be signs that it&#8217;s time to change your water filter.<\/li>\n<li>Set a reminder to change your filter every 6 months.<\/li>\n<li>Sign up for our Home Filter Club subscription!
