    Jim do you have to turn the water off behind the refrig first? Thanks

  • SmartBlonde4898:

    No, the frig water line will close when you take the filter out and open when you put the new one in. Jim C

    Suddenly it seems these filter’s price went up three times!!!!!! The real recession they never told you about.

  • ItsUpToYouTOO:

    They have! We have a LG now and the water filter costs close to $50! Major ripoff. So, go onto your frig manufacture’s website and let your voice be heard!

  • ItsUpToYouTOO:

    It sounds like your water value system. I replaced my friends because it was not working correctly. You will have to either (1) turn off water line to frig to stop leak or (2) get frig repair man/woman to fix. Or (3), if you know a friend who is a handyman to get him/her to help. I live in ATL, GA.

  • ItsUpToYouTOO:

    Your frig should have an indicator that tells you. But if it does not, then I would replace twice a year (every 6 months) for a family of four. Also, ask the maker of the filter.

  • ItsUpToYouTOO:

    Look at the frig model’s user manual where instructions are to replace water filter. If you don’t have, then go to frig makers website and download user manual. Please make sure you turn off water line going to your frig 1st before replacing filter.

    I did all the steps to replace a fridge filter however the red light on my fridge is still showing after I replaced it. How would I make it so it goes green again?

  • ItsUpToYouTOO:

    You need to press and hold the ‘replace filter light/button on your frig and then it will reset itself.

  • ymeacutie:

    Try as I might I can’t insert the filter cartridge all the way in. I even tried putting the old one in and that one won’t even go all the way in. It’s not as easy as it looks. Any ideas?
