Additional Information

  • The 5231JA2006E refrigerator water filter is designed to improve the taste and quality of the water dispensed from your fridge. It is capable of filtering out various contaminants, such as chlorine, lead, mercury, and certain pesticides, ensuring that the water and ice dispensed are clean and safe to consume. The filter typically lasts about six months before needing replacement, depending on water usage and local water quality. To install, locate the filter housing in the refrigerator, typically in the upper right corner or base grille. Twist the old filter to the left to remove and replace it with the new filter, turning it to the right to secure it in place. After installation, it's recommended to flush approximately 2 gallons of water through the filter before using the water to remove any carbon fines or manufacturing residues.
