Save yourself some more money by installing an inline water filter which is a filter put in between the refrigerator and the water outlet for the refrigerator. This filter removes the need for a filter inside your refrigerator.
To do this:
1. Call the manufacturer of your refrigerator and ask them to send you a "bypass filter". Many manufacturers will send this free of charge. GE certainly is free as I did this with them a couple of months ago
2. Purchase an "inline water filter". Example the 5 year ecopure filter is $30 on amz. You can also buy these from big box stores.
3. Watch a you tube video on installing the filter. It's basically turn off the water supply for the refrigerator, cut the water line with a sharp knife, and push in the water line into either end of the in line filter (purge the filter before connecting the second line). I did this on Sunday and it took me 10 mins start to finish.
I hope this saves you all some money for the next 5 years!
