The Water Filter is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is designed to filter and purify the water for your refrigerator, ensuring clean and fresh drinking water and ice.

A bad refrigerator water filter can be caused by regular use and the buildup of contaminants over time. It may also become less effective if not replaced according to the manufacturer's recommended schedule.

Symptoms of a bad refrigerator water filter include:

  • A decrease in water flow or water pressure.
  • An unpleasant taste or odor in the water.
  • The presence of particles or sediment in the water.
  • Cloudy or discolored ice cubes.

If you notice any of these signs or if it has been more than six months since your last filter replacement, it's time to replace the refrigerator water filter with this genuine OEM part. This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

Hello Kelly. No, make sure it is seated good. If so, the filter may be defective. If purchased though our site, we would replace the part. However, this was purchased elsewhere so I can not tell you what they will do for you. Thanks.

Hello Don, You do not have to turn water off to replace the water filter but is recommended by the manufacturer in case there is a problem with the water filter head. The water filter does just turn counter clockwise. Try to turn water off and release pressure by pushing dispenser. Then try to take out.
