-
While replacing the filter improves water/ice quality, it does not fix issues related to water supply line pressure, ice maker malfunction, door seal leaks or compressor faults—those should be addressed separately with a technician.
-
Installation is typically DIY friendly: turn off the water supply, depress the release tab of the existing filter, remove and replace with the new filter, flush 2–3 gallons of water before use. Refer to your appliance’s manual for specific instructions.
-
Always run the first few glasses of water through a new filter and discard them to remove any manufacturing residues or trapped air.
