Here are a few common ones:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Samsung: Press and hold the \u201cIce Type\u201d and \u201cChild Lock\u201d (or \u201cAlarm\u201d) buttons at the same time for 3-5 seconds.<\/li>\n<li>LG: Hold down the \u201cReset\u201d or \u201cFilter\u201d button for 3 seconds until the light turns off or changes color.<\/li>\n<li>Kenmore and Whirlpool: Look for the \u201cReset\u201d or \u201cFilter Reset\u201d button. It can sometimes be found inside the fridge or on the control panel. Press and hold it until the indicator light turns off.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you\u2019re not sure which buttons to press, check your owner\u2019s manual for specific instructions. With the indicator reset, your fridge will keep track of your next filter change, so you don&#8217;t have to!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-19443 size-full\" style=\"width: 100%; height: 400px; object-fit: cover;\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Samsung-RSG257AARS-filter-red-icon.jpg-nggid03725-ngg0dyn-0x0x100-00f0w010c010r110f110r010t010.jpg\" alt=\"refrigerator filter change filter light\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Samsung-RSG257AARS-filter-red-icon.jpg-nggid03725-ngg0dyn-0x0x100-00f0w010c010r110f110r010t010.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Samsung-RSG257AARS-filter-red-icon.jpg-nggid03725-ngg0dyn-0x0x100-00f0w010c010r110f110r010t010-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Samsung-RSG257AARS-filter-red-icon.jpg-nggid03725-ngg0dyn-0x0x100-00f0w010c010r110f110r010t010-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Samsung-RSG257AARS-filter-red-icon.jpg-nggid03725-ngg0dyn-0x0x100-00f0w010c010r110f110r010t010-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Refrigerator Water Filter FAQs<\/h2>\n<h3>Why is it essential to change your refrigerator water filter regularly?<\/h3>\n<p>If your refrigerator has a water dispenser and\/or ice maker, it has a water filter.<\/p>\n<p>Over time, refrigerator filters can become clogged with chlorine, dirt, and odors, which can change the taste of your water and ice.<\/p>\n<p>Regardless of how often you use your fridge\u2019s water and ice, you must change your fridge filter every 6 months.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some benefits of changing your water filter regularly:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Enhanced Experience:<\/strong> No one wants to question what\u2019s lurking in their drinking water. Replacing the filter regularly ensures the water is crisp and clean.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Safe Sips:<\/strong> Refrigerator filters trap chlorine and sediment, and some reduce lead. Filters are essential for capturing unwanted extras.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Longer-lasting Refrigerator<\/strong>: Clogged filters can cause your fridge to work harder. This uses more energy and drives up your electricity bills, and can shorten your fridge filter&#8217;s lifespan. Neglecting filter changes can force you to buy a new fridge sooner than you\u2019d like.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Healthy Family:<\/strong> The convenience of fresh, filtered water in your fridge helps keep your family hydrated and happy.<br \/>\nChanging your refrigerator filter regularly is beneficial for your health and can also extend your refrigerator&#8217;s lifespan.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>How do I know when to change my refrigerator water filter?<\/h3>\n<p>Refrigerator water filters typically last 6 months. After 6 months, the filter&#8217;s performance will start to decline. No matter how often you use the refrigerator filter, the best way to ensure quality and refrigerator efficiency is to change it on a 6-month schedule.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;d rather not keep track of when to order your refrigerator water filter, signing up for a subscription is an easy way to stay on top of filter changes. The Filters Fast Home Filter Club is a fee-free subscription that offers you a percentage off and free shipping with each subscription order. All you have to do is set it and forget it!

The filter indicator light tells you when to order your replacement filter and when to change it. Fridge change-filter lights are usually on a timer. They do not indicate the filter\u2019s quality.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Changes in pressure and taste:<\/strong> Water coming out more slowly than usual or tasting funny. These signs may indicate that your filter is clogged and needs to be replaced.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cannot remember:<\/strong> If you can\u2019t recall when the filter was last changed, it\u2019s time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-19297 size-full\" style=\"width: 100%; height: 400px; object-fit: cover;\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/iStock-650561398.jpg\" alt=\"woman getting ready to change refrigerator filter\" width=\"1440\" height=\"960\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/iStock-650561398.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/iStock-650561398-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/iStock-650561398-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/iStock-650561398-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>How do you find the correct replacement water filter for your refrigerator?<\/h3>\n<p>If you\u2019re not sure which filter you need, look inside your fridge for a sticker with your fridge&#8217;s model number. Model numbers are typically stamped on a sticker or plate in one of several spots:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Inside the fridge, look for a label on one of the side walls. It can also be near the vegetable drawers or on the ceiling of the main compartment.<\/li>\n<li>Behind the crisper drawers: Pull out your bottom bins. Some manufacturers put the information behind or underneath these trays.<\/li>\n<li>On the door frame: Sometimes, the model number will be just inside the fridge or freezer door, along the edge or gasket.<br \/>\nBack of the appliance: If you&#8217;re already giving your fridge a gentle nudge to peek behind, check for a plate on the rear panel.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Take a look at these spots and note the number before you start shopping for filters.<\/p>\n<p>You can also check the filter itself for the model or part number. You can also check your manual for the approved replacement filter. Identifying the correct filter ensures you can remove the old one and install the new one without hassle.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re still unsure, start your search by finding your fridge brand on our Fridge Filters page. From there, you will answer a few questions about your fridge, and we\u2019ll help you track down the right filter for your model.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>What contaminants do refrigerator water filters remove?<\/h3>\n<p>What do refrigerator water filters keep out of your glass? This will depend on the filter\u2019s NSF certification. An NSF certification means that an independent third party has tested and certified the filter.<\/p>\n<p>The two most common refrigerator water filter <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/nsf-standards\/\">NSF standards<\/a> are NSF\/ANSI 42 and NSF\/ANSI 53.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>NSF\/ANSI 42:<\/strong> Reduces aesthetic contaminants, such as chlorine taste and odor, as well as sediment.<\/li>\n<li><strong>NSF\/ANSI 53:<\/strong> Reduces contaminants that pose health risks, such as lead, asbestos, VOCs, cysts, and certain pesticides.<br \/>\nAlways look for the NSF certification on the packaging to ensure a quality fridge filter. In addition to choosing a filter that best fits your water filtration needs, it&#8217;s important to change it regularly!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>Are aftermarket or generic fridge filters okay to use?<\/h3>\n<p>Most refrigerator brands recommend using the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) filter. OEM can be expensive, but you can often find a compatible filter that is much more affordable. There are many compatible <a href=\"https:\/\/www.filtersfast.com\/Refrigerator-Water-Filters-cat.asp\">refrigerator water filters<\/a> available, so it\u2019s essential to research to make the right choice.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few things to consider when shopping for a refrigerator filter:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Not all filters are the same. You must ensure that the filter you choose fits your fridge model and does what it claims, such as filtering out specific contaminants.<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t compromise on quality. If a price seems too good to be true, it probably is. Check for certifications and that you\u2019re buying from a trusted retailer. Beware of counterfeits posing as OEMs.<\/li>\n<li>Check for certifications. The only way to know you\u2019re getting a quality filter is to look for the NSF certification or WQA seal. These acclaimed certifications are a simple way to ensure the filter will do what it claims to. Brands like Waterdrop, Everydrop, and Filters Fast all carry NSF certifications.<\/li>\n<li>Mind the manual. Check your owner\u2019s manual or the existing filter to confirm the model number.<\/li>\n<li>What&#8217;s the warranty? Sometimes using aftermarket or generic filters may void your fridge\u2019s warranty. For more information, read <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/will-non-oem-filters-void-warranty\/\">Will Non-OEM filters Void Your Warranty?<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Ultimately, the decision is up to you. Choosing a generic fridge filter over an OEM filter can involve trade-offs. But the more you know, the better you can buy.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>What are the different types of Refrigerator Water Filters?<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Push-in: Push-in filters fit into a compartment in the refrigerator. You can usually find it at the bottom front, behind the grille, or in the upper-right interior. They are generally easy to install.<\/li>\n<li>Twist-in: This type of filter is usually located in the upper-right interior or in the base grille at the bottom of the refrigerator. It has either a push-button or a simple twist-release.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.filtersfast.com\/In-line-Refrigerator-Water-Filters-cat.asp\">Inline filters<\/a>: These filters are attached to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.filtersfast.com\/Fridge-Ice-Maker-Water-Lines-cat.asp\">incoming water line<\/a> at the back of the refrigerator. You will usually find these on older models without a built-in filter.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>Why should you run water through the new filter after installation?<\/h3>\n<p>After replacing your refrigerator filter, it\u2019s essential to flush it. You can do this by running a few gallons of water and discarding it.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/how-to-change-refrigerator-water-filter-and-flush\/\">Flushing a new refrigerator filter<\/a> removes carbon residue that the water flow has knocked loose. And that\u2019s it\u2026 mission accomplished! You can also discard the first batch of ice after a filter change as an extra measure. You can now enjoy clean, fresh water from your fridge\u2014worry-free!<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>I can&#8217;t get my refrigerator filter out. What should I do?<\/h3>\n<p>If your filter still will not come out or go in, contact the refrigerator manufacturer. They can provide further technical support. Each model can be a bit different, and manufacturer guidance is always the safest bet for tricky situations.<\/p>\n<h3>Are there any other tips to make installing a new refrigerator filter easier?<\/h3>\n<p>Here are a few tips to help you have a smoother, easier filter change with less mess.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Test your water.<\/strong> Knowing precisely what is in your tap water will help you better determine what filter certification you need.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Confirm compatibility.<\/strong> Make sure the replacement filter is compatible with your refrigerator before installing it.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Keep a spare filter around.<\/strong> Having an extra filter on hand will make filter changes much easier, so you won\u2019t have to wait until it\u2019s time to change.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Set up reminders or a subscription.<\/strong> Setting a reminder on your phone or calendar will help you remember when it\u2019s time to change. You can also sign up for a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.filtersfast.com\/auto-delivery.asp\">refrigerator filter subscription<\/a> to have your filters sent when they need replacement.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Label the installation date on the filter where you can see it.<\/strong> You\u2019ll never forget the date of the last filter change because it\u2019s right there whenever you open your fridge.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Don\u2019t overtighten the filter.<\/strong> Gently turn it and make sure it is secure. Forcing it can damage the filter or the filter housing.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Inspect the old filter.<\/strong> Look for signs of slimness. You may need to clean the filter housing if your filter is slimy around the installation area. You may also want to test your water to ensure you don\u2019t need a pre-filter or whole-house system to address its issues.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>What to Check Before Buying<\/h2>\n<p>Before purchasing a refrigerator water filter, here are a few things you&#8217;ll want to check before adding to cart:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Refrigerator Model Number &#8211; Is your fridge&#8217;s model number listed for the filter you want to buy?<\/li>\n<li>NSF Certification &#8211; Is the filter NSF-certified? Does the rating meet your filtration needs?<\/li>\n<li>OEM or Compatible Brand &#8211; Is the filter OEM (the same brand as your fridge) or made by the same brand as your refrigerator? Or is it a compatible brand?<\/li>\n<li>Warranty &#8211; Does the fridge filter have a warranty? Does your refrigerator have a warranty against compatible filters?<\/li>\n<li>Replacement Schedule &#8211; How often will you need to replace the fridge filter? Factoring in the replacement schedule will help you anticipate future costs.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Checking these details before you buy will save you time and frustration later.<\/p>\n<h2>Time for a Change<\/h2>\n<p>Changing your refrigerator water filter every 6 months is important, and knowing which filter you need and how to replace it is equally important.
