Parts for Ge PFSF0MFCABB: Freezer Section Parts

The GE refrigerator water filter is an OEM replacement part responsible for ensuring the quality of the water dispensed on GE Profile top and bottom freezer refrigerators. It is responsible for purifying the water before it reaches your glass or ice maker, providing you with clean and safe drinking water directly from your refrigerator. To maintain optimal water quality and ensure the filter's effectiveness, it is recommended to replace the filter every 6 months or when the rated capacity of 750 gallons is reached.

Over time, the water filter can become clogged with sediment, reducing its effectiveness. Regular use and the accumulation of minerals and contaminants can lead to the need for replacement.

Symptoms of a bad water filter include:

• Reduced water flow from the dispenser
• Ice cubes with an unusual taste or odor
• The filter indicator light staying on
• Visible particles in the water or ice

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models. For the best performance, it is recommended to replace the water filter every six months or as indicated by the filter change light on your refrigerator.
