I bought this filter on july18 and already it shows to be replaced, i don't understand that since according Frigidaire replace filter every 6 months.

It depends on how much you use the water from your fridge, the filter is good for X amount of gallons.

The manufacturer suggests changing the filter every six months. I waited for a year. A light will come on to let you know the filters need to be changed. After you change them, you will need to reset the light.

I haven't change my carbon filters as of yet and the other filter the manufacture say's its good for a year. Which that to me remain to be seen.I say that only because I have only had my 2 unit up and run for 2 months on auto any have only shut them off to check the filters and they all look just fine.My units came package with 3 extra carbon filters.

It is a genuine part. I don't believe it is a Frigidaire part, but from another source; but it does exactly match the first one I removed. To be clear, I think that Frigidaire shopped for an existing filter rather than create their own.

You have to open it and change the filter. I do this every other month only I hose the old one down

I have only had the unit for about 3 -4 weeks but there is a indicator on the unit that will tell you when to change filter. I do not know if this helps.

I have only used it for about 6 weeks. Every other week I took out the filter and put it in a diluted vinegar solution over night. I hope that the filter will be cleaned and lasts a little longer.

If your fridge requires that the original filter be installed in order for water to flow, just buy a new one and leave it in. Woder 5K Fridge Filter will filter out contaminants BEFORE they ever get to the OEM filter. So you won't have to buy another for a full 36 MONTHS. We call our filter 'Refrigerator Technician's best kept secret'.

The best practice is to change it every 8 to 12 months. Even flowing strongly after that time filter could have lost part of its filtering properties.

On my home thermostat in the lower left corner the words replace filter appear and shortly thereafter I replace it. The replace indicator appears usually once during the winter. This year I replaced it twice since it has been so cold. Depends on your situation but I would think once a year .

I find that changing that filter every 12 to 18 mos. is plenty to keep the water clean and fresh. As others have said, the company says annually, but they are making money more often that way. The filter I bought here is exactly the same except it has a lower price. What is not to love about that? (put masking tape on your filter and put the date your new one should be installed right on the filter casing.)

We recommend changing the filter every 6 to 8 months. However, the filter life will depend upon the environment in which it is used.

Best to contact Frigidaire to check number. I would have to think it is just a new number with the c at the end. Best to be sure though there are so many different ones out there.

I did not notice any change in water flow or taste after 6 months. I have the subscription to automatically order it after 6 months...great filter!

Every 6. month's but make sure it's the correct filter because the one I. ppurchased in December was shipped with the wrong filter it blew dust out. replaced with right filter this is my second one. That's why I purchased this one, the last one lasted fir 10 years. It ran 24 hours 7days a week nonstop.

one of your filters has gone bad. Part of this system being junk is that the filters are junk. You can call the manufacturer but they will likely decline to give you a new one. Tell them that you just bought it and see if they'll send you one. They know their system is junk but they keep selling it anyway.
