Extra tips
If you’re struggling to remove the water filter, the problem could be a build up of water
pressure behind the filter. Try removing the top 2 fridge shelves and pull the filter harder to
remove it.
If you can’t get the new filter to fit in the space, close the water supply valve and dispense a
little bit of water. This will lower the pressure, making it easier to install the new filter.
5. Why You Need to Change Your Fridge Filter Every 6 Months
You might think you only need to change your fridge filter every time the indicator light
recommends it — but that’s not true. Waiting until the light turns red can be dangerous for
your health.
A water filter stops contaminants passing from the pipes into your drinking water. When the
water filter is no longer effective, all the contaminants which have been trapped can now
pass through into your drinking water, making it even dirtier than if you didn’t use any water
filter at all.
Each Samsung water filter uses an activated carbon filter media that is certified for use with
a limited quantity of water before you need to change the cartridge out. This amount of water
is usually what an average household will go through every six months.
