This water filter head assembly holds the water filter and connects the water lines to the filter.

The Water Filter Bypass is an OEM part for LG refrigerators. It is used when you choose not to use a water filter in your refrigerator. This bypass plug allows water to flow directly to the dispenser and ice maker without being filtered, ensuring continuous operation even when a filter is not installed.

Causes of a bad water filter bypass can include damage to the bypass plug, clogging from debris, or wear and tear over time. If the bypass plug is not functioning properly, it can disrupt the water flow and lead to issues with the ice maker and water dispenser.

Symptoms of a bad water filter bypass include:

• Reduced water flow or no water flow to the dispenser
• Ice maker not producing ice
• Water leaks around the bypass plug area

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore.

The Air Cleaner Filter Assembly is an OEM part for LG refrigerators. This part ensures the air within the appliance remains fresh and free of contaminants. This part minimizes odors and filtering out particulates, thereby maintaining the quality of the air circulating through the refrigerator and its contents. 

Over time, the effectiveness of the air cleaner filter can diminish due to the accumulation of particles and odors it has trapped. A decrease in air quality within the refrigerator, persistent odors despite cleaning, and an increase in the spoilage rate of food items can all be signs that the filter assembly may need replacement.

Symptoms of a bad Air Cleaner Filter Assembly include:

• Persistent unpleasant odors inside the refrigerator
• Increased spoilage of food items
• Noticeable reduction in air freshness or quality

This OEM LG part is also compatible with some Kenmore models.
