Thomas for Model Number WRF992FIFM00

Can we please get a clear explanation as to why these filters EDR2RXD1 from whirlpool are so expensive? Since I have a whole house filter, the inline filter for the unit is not needed. When the filter is removed and placed into BY-PASS mode every time water is dispensed ( water or ice machine) about a 250ml or 1/2 cup water is discharged from the the FILTER housing assembly. It will fill the drip pan under the draw and after about 2 weeks. The condenser will ice over. IF THE FILTER is installed this is not a problem. The unit is only 1 years old.

1 Answer

Thomas, The manufacturer is the one who sets the retail price for these filters. If the unit is leaking when water is pressed with the filter out then you have a faulty filter head and would need to replace it.

Hello Gooday, your refrigerator has small switch located up in the water filter housing that the filter cartridge presses on to tell the control board a water filter is installed and can then track the filter use status. As per the Use and Care booklet that came with your refrigerator it states ..NOTE: “Replace Filter” will remain illuminated if a filter is not installed or is installed incorrectly...So there is no option to turn off the message.

Zload for Model Number WRF992FIFM

I have a Whirlpool French Door WRF992FIFM in white, the filter is located inside on the bottom left of the refrigerator compartment. It originally used filter EDR2RXD1 but that has since been replaced by Everydrop Filter 2 as your page notes. The filter cap will not lock onto the Filter 2 housing as the groove pattern is completely different and the filter is very hard to rotate as it does not protrude from the housing enough to get a grip on the housing. Is there a newer cap that fits the grooves on the Filter 2?

1 Answer

Zload, It is showing that the filter cap for this unit will be part number W11189114 which is a substitute from the original part.

Steve, the by-pass is built into the filter housing, all water goes through the filter system, if you are getting water to the front dispenser, there is water going through the filter, you will probably need to replace the icemaker.

Rick, It is normal to have particles in the water when dispensed after replacing filter. You will want to flush about 3 gallons of water through the system after replacing the filter.

Weblee, This unit does not require a bypass plug. When you remove the filter the housing will automatically bypass.

Kathy, There would not be a bypass cap for this unit as it will auto bypass when filter is removed. The little water may be from removing the filter but if it is continuing to drip then the auto bypass is not fully seating and the filter head would be the cause for this issue.

Hello Kevin, You do not need a bypass plug for the model provided. Pulling the water filter out should allow for water dispense with no bypass or filter installed.
