The Reservoir is a Whirlpool OEM replacement part for Whirlpool side-by-side refrigerators. This assembly does include the filter head. The filter head connects the external filter cartridge to the internal reservoir. The reservoir holds filtered water that is dispensed from the external door dispenser.
Causes can be normal wear to sealing components, cracks in plastic from repeated pressure changes, or mineral buildup affecting water flow.
Symptoms of a problem include:
- Prematurely lit filter change indicators
- Water dispenser flow slowing or stopping over time
- Gradual decline in ice production amounts
- Noticeable sediment or particles in dispensed water
It is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Some Kenmore models.

I had a leak at the water inlet valve Nicholas C. • Wildwood , MO • May 15, 2020
I had a slow leak at the water inlet valve where the water line from the filter assembly connected to the water inlet valve. I determine that the water line had scratches in it which caused it to not seal. Had to buy the entire reservoir and filter assembly to get that water line. The replacement was smooth. It took about 30 minutes to swap out and it fixed the leak.
