Customer Questions and Answers for Tub Filter by Frigidaire

This tub filter screens wash water as it leaves the outer tub, capturing lint and small items before they reach the drain pump. Replacing a damaged or missing filter helps restore proper draining and protect the pump from debris.

• Screens lint, threads, and small debris from water exiting the tub
• Helps prevent drain pump clogs and drain-related errors
• A clogged, damaged, or missing filter can cause slow/no drain, standing water, or pump noise
• Physical damage, broken tabs, or warping are common reasons to replace

• Disconnect power and turn off water; expect residual water—use towels or a pan
• Access location varies by model; the filter sits at the outer tub outlet along the drain path
• Release the hose clamp/retainer, remove debris and the old filter, seat the new filter fully in the port
• Reattach clamps securely and run a short drain/rinse to check for leaks and proper flow
