Ace November 22, 2019 for Model Number GD5RVAXVY03 I have RO and would like to bypass my water filter. I’ve been told it’s not necessary when you already have RO. The water tastes bad coming out of the refrigerator all the time and I have always bought a filter for it. The tech told me to bypass the filter and it would taste better. What water bypass cap do I need to purchase and is it easy to install?
1 Answer Hello Ace, to bypass the water filter all you have to do is remove the water filter. Remember to keep the cap on the end of the filter, thanks! Read More...
Shinapen November 13, 2019 for Model Number RF260BEAESR Does this Samsung Refrigerator require a water filer to run properly?
1 Answer Shinapen, the water filter is not needed to allow water to flow to the ice maker and dispenser. However, if the water is hard water, the filter can assist with protecting from calcium or lime build-up within the water lines. Read More...

James September 20, 2019 for Model Number GS5SHAXNL00 Do I need a filter bypass plug for this unit? Also can I connect RO to it without a pump? We have good pressure city water. Thank you
1 Answer James, the filter can be removed from your unit without needing a bypass plug on this particular model. This refrigerator can be supplied water from the house after a reverse osmosis system. The water pressure to the refrigerator will need to be 60-90 PSI for optimum operational efficiency. Read More...
Kevin September 20, 2019 for Model Number WRS571CIDM01 I have a whole house filter reverse osmosis system. Does my unit require a filter bypass cap?
1 Answer Hello Kevin, You do not require a filter in the refrigerator with an RO system. If you experience an issue with the icemaker overfilling or the water dispenser not stopping properly you may need to increase water pressure to the unit. You see, the water valve has no internal spring to aid in its' closure. Water pressure alone closes the valve. It requires from 45 to 90 PSI for proper closure. The water valves for a dishwasher and washing machine are the same. A plumber can normally help with this if it becomes necessary. The model number provided does not require a filter bypass. Simply remove the filter and it will operate normally. Read More...

1 Answer Sharon H, your model has a built-in bypass in the water filter housing. You can verify this by removing the water filter and try running water through the dispenser Read More...
