I purchased a new refrigerator a little over a year ago that has an ice maker and water dispenser on the front door. There is a filter indicator on the inside that counts down when it’s time to change the water filter. I have used the water dispenser twice since it was purchased and the ice maker is turned on once every 3 month if not longer. Should I change the water filter when the indicator says it’s time or can I wait much longer?

I have a top/bottom Whirlpool Gold refrigerator. We noticed this evening that there is no response from the water dispenser and the light for the water dispenser is not on either. It seems like it’s probably an electronic issue. Any advice on how to fix this?

Refrigerator install of water dispenser tube?




My husband is trying to install the water dispenser tube on the back of the refrig. and is using saddle slef piercing valves. They keep leaking not a lot just about a drip every 5 minutes or so. What has he not done or done to cause this and how does he fix it? We had it hooked up before and it worked fine had to unhook it to install new flooring.
It also is leaking at the base of the refrigerator where the tubing is attached. This is a compression fitting

Refrigerator water dispenser cleaning?




Hey everyone.
My refrigerator’s water dispenser is in desperate need of cleaning… the water tastes horrible even when the filter is changed and now I started noticing that black specs are forming from the water dispenser!

Given that these specs form when water stands still, I suspect they are fungi and not bits of activated charcoal.

I drink water from the tap now so I don’t use the dispenser, but it’d still be nice to know what to do about it… it looks ugly!

Wonderful spring water is available from a spring way out in the country in Tennessee. It is piped to a spot where people can just walk up and get water. People have been drinking from this spring for 200 years. The water is delicious. But how long can I keep this water in a closed container outside of the refrigerator before I have to put clorine in it or something to keep it good for drinking?

Black specs in my water, please help..?




My refrigerator water has been dispensing very small black specs, it was a very old refirgertor and needed to be replaced anyway. Replace it with a top of the line fridge with a water filter system. still black specs. Not in tap water or any other place. Any ideas? Thank You

I have an old house (1945) and we used to have ice but had it turned off years ago because of the bad water. But, now that we have a filter, we want ice and got a new refrigerator but the delivery guys could not find the knob. Next to the refrigerator is a dryer and next to that a washer. And the wall behind the refrigerator is the bathroom. The delivery guys could not find the knob on the wall that turns on the water. How did we used to have this hooked up?

Our refrigerator is more than 5 years old now and we’ve never change the water filter before. Is it still good/safe to drink from it?
our water comes from the city.

How difficult is it to replace an EverPure water filter?




Previous occupant of my home installed an EverPure H-54 water filter to filter the water going to the water dispenser and ice maker of the refrigerator. I’ve seen these filters online for or so. Is this something that I can easily replace by shutting off the water and using some simple wrenches and screwdrivers? Or should I get it professionally installed?

Is tap water just as hydrating as filtered water?




My filter on my refrigerator is broken and I have to drink tap water for a few days. I have to drink 8+ glasses of water a day because of my heart problems. Will tap water make me hydrated just as much as filtered water does?

I always bought spring water because I like the taste (I don’t know why but I taste chlorine in the tap water) and I like to be healthy. My parents purchased this refrigerator that has filtered water on it and to tell you the truth, the water tastes fine. But I still want to be healthy. Do those filtered get out all the chemicals? Are they as good as bottled spring water?

I just purchased a new refirgerator with a built in ice maker and water dispenser. The problem is, I have a water softener and did not have the refrigerator water bypassed. I do have a R/O filter under the sink for drinking water and was wondering if the filter on the refrigerator was enough to filter the water.

Is an undersink water filtration system better?




I have a refrigerator that only has an inline filter instead of the additional (and much desired) second filter in the fridge. We have used the sink faucet one for awhile but it’s so expensive, has to be changed a lot, and is always in the way when I’m doing dishes. Would you recommend getting an undersink filtration system or buying something like Culligan delivered already filtered water?
