…water output no longer filtered?
I use the PUR filters in my refrigerator and on my kitchen tap for water. The indicator lights will change from green to red in 45-60 days after a filter replacement, but the water will keep flowing for another 60-90 days before the filter completely clogs up, and then I have to replace the filter. During the period when the light is red, is the water still being purified? My guess is that it is.

I use a similar filter system when I go hiking, and the instruction manual states that the filter will only output clean filtered water and can be used up until it is completely clogged. But the data on the home filters only say to replace the filter immediately after the light goes red. I think they just want to sell more filters.

I don’t know WHAT they are called, but they go in the refrigerator. They have them at the store, but they look very cheesy and I got one a couple of years ago that never worked in the first place…so I want to spend more money and get something that works! Any ideas on where to look or what exactly they are called?

I’m moving into a subsidized apartment and problem is that there aren’t any water filters there not even on the refrigerator.

So do I actually need to buy them from the store?

Is there a place to mail them, or can you drop them off somewhere, generally?
Let me clarify just a bit… I have a water dispenser on my refrigerator door. I must purchase and use a filter with it. If it is possible to recycle these, where can I do it?

I’m looking for a water filter (not the kind that fits on your faucet or the kind that attaches to you refrigerator) that tastes as much like bottled water as possible. Any suggestions?

Every time we run our dishes through the dishwasher they come out looking like they didn’t get rinsed very well. Some friends told us that our water softener isn’t working correctly. I’ve also noticed deposits in the tray below our water and ice dispenser in our refrigerator. Is there an easy fix for this problem that a Do It Yourselfer can handle? Or do I need to have a professional come out and maintenance it?

I am interested in knowing if the built-in water purification system on a typical refrigerator (this one being a GE model) remove the fluoride from the water?

My chemistry professor in college maintained that fluoride is a known human carcinogen and that it provides no net health benefits provided you actually take care of your teeth on your own. I am not a fan of fluoridated water as I have seen studies that show fluoride leads to all sorts of health problems.

But that aside, I am not looking for a debate about the merits of fluoride, only information about what sort of filters are needed to remove it from my water.

Thank you.

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?

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

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?
