Customer Questions and Answers for Water Filter Bypass Plug by Whirlpool

Hello Richard, You should first make sure there is enough water pressure, (45 to 90 P.S.I.), to properly close the water valve. If so, you will need to remove the filter and this design should dispense water normally. If not, you will either need to continue using the water filter or you may have to obtain an apparatus to increase water pressure for proper water valve operation.
