Mike M for Model Number WHFK-R-Plus in line whirlpool water filter

I have a Whirlpool WHKF-R-Plus water filter cartridge and I am looking for a replacement filter and a bypass plug so that I can remove the filter in the winter and replace the filter holder for the filter. I use this in my motorhome and when I winterized the RV I need yo pumpRV antifreeze through the water system. Can you provide the products and if so provide the product numbers so I can order the appropriate products.

Mike, An in-line water filter would not have a filter bypass for it. We are not showing a part number for the inline filter that you have.
