Kay for Model Number GE Side By Side GE2SS2SQG I have a MWF water filter which I replaced in May 2014. I replace them every 6 months or earlier if the light goes on. I have been on vacation for the last two weeks. When I came home, the water that dispensed from the refrigerator was clear but had beige and darker particulates floating in it. Ok. I ran about 10 gallons through the water dispenser with very little difference change. Still stuff floating in my water. I ran water from my unfiltered tap, and it was perfectly clear. I am confused. My water from the refrigerator has always been crystal clear. If the town flushed the water, it should have worked its way through the refrigerator by now. Any suggestions on what I should do?
Answer Hello Kay, You will have to replace the water tank to correct this issue. What happens is since the water is filtered, the water sitting in the tank will actually start to develop an algae formation. City water has chemicals in it to prevent this from happening but since the water goes through the filter before entering the water tank, the chemicals are removed. Read More...
