Trace August 01, 2016 for Model Number ED2VHEXVQ01 My filter is in the grill. Can I simply remove it and use a in line filter?
Jeffrey T July 28, 2016 for Model Number wrx988sibm01 Hello, I have a reverse osmosis system on this fridge and would like to know of a filter bypass /cap is available for my model. It currently uses "#2 sized filters". Thank you
1 Answer Hello Jeffery. There is no bypass listed for this model. Usually you can remove the filters and it will bypass automatically. If not, you have to use the filter. Read More...
V.H. July 25, 2016 for Model Number ED5VGXSS00 I put in a Reverse Osmosis system and I was told I need a plug cap to replace the filter in my Whirlpool side by side. I didn't find one for my model. Thanks
1 Answer Hello V.H., I"m sorry but the model number provided is not coming up as valid. I would recommend to verify the model number on the units' I.D. tag and post a new question. This way we can pull accurate information on the unit in your home. Thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter. Read More...
Bill M July 24, 2016 for Model Number ED5KVEXQ00 Hello, I would like to bypass the filter in my Whirlpool refrigerator and install an inline filter instead because Whirlpool no longer makes the original and the replacement from every drop tastes bad.

Karen June 25, 2016 My whirlpool fridge Model:WRX988SIBM is leaking water from the filter door. How do I fix this ? I have already replaced the filter and that did not help.
1 Answer Karen, With the unit leaking from the filter door, this would most likely be a faulty filter head or the tubing going to the filter head. You will want to access the filter head to determine where the water may be coming from. Read More...

Melissa May 30, 2016 for Model Number WRF736SDAM12 Have a Whirlpool WRF736SDAM12 and just installed a whole house filtration system, but cannot find a way to bypass the filter. Is there a bypass plug for this model?
1 Answer Hello Melissa, Remove the filter on this unit to use without a filter. It appears no filter bypass is required on this design. As per service manual: If your refrigerator has a water filter, it may further reduce the water pressure when used in conjunction with a reverse osmosis system. Remove the water filter. Read More...
