Do you "have to" turn off the household water in order to replace this filter in an LG frig?

No just take out the old one and screw in the new one. There will be a little water drops but not much. We just put a paper towel under it during the change out and have no issues.

The filter serves as a connector between the incoming water and the icemaker/water dispenser. The system will not work if you remove the filter. You would have to fabricate some sort of direct-connect line.

I actually use this as a carbon filter for the water I use in my brewing. The filter lives inside most of the time and is only hooked up when I use it for short periods of time. I'm assuming that you would need to disconnect it to avoid freezing and only plug it in when you want to use it. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

If your refrigerator is already plumbed under your kitchen sink, you'll just need a T fitting, and the appropriate corresponding line. I would suggest a miniature valve downstream of the T fitting, so you'll have the ability to turn off the supply to your refrigerator, without interrupting the supply to the RO tap.You did not say if your refrigerator is plumbed to the kitchen sink, or whether it has an inline filter already. Also, without knowing if you have copper, or plastic line to the refrigerator, it is hard to make plumbing suggestions.

The water needs to be shut off off the cold water line connected to your waterline to the fridge. You can also refer to the "connecting waterline" section of your manual: pages 8 and 9. Please feel free to call us if you have any other questions- 888-768-1710.Melanie with Goedekers

If you go to this link http://www.lg.com/us/appliance-accessories/lg-LT600P-water-filter You will see the F version listed as the original filter along with the A and B versions as replacements.

Yes, you can. If you like the taste of the water from your refrigerator, go for it! These filters are optional.

The unit requires an electrical plug and ¼" tubing to a water supply. If you remove the top lid there is a ¼" quick connect to a small section of white ¼" tubing that runs out the back of the unit. I removed that piece and replaced it with a long section that I ran to a RO water filter. You could go to a hardware store and get some ¼" icemaker tubing and a fitting to splice it between a cold water shutoff and the supply line of a nearby faucet. Placing a water filter in the line is optional but there is no filter in the unit.

It's the whole thing...what you see screws onto your tap. It works pretty good. A green light blinks when the filter is working and when it turns red you can taste the difference. Depending on your family size and usage, it lasts a few month. It's not so expensive that you shouldn't give it a try...see if it works for your family. My city water isn't too bad but I taste flouride and this eliminates the taste.

nstructions 1. Twist the old filter a quarter-turn counterclockwise 2. Pull the filter straight out (don't worry, the water will shut off automatically) 3. Remove the reusable color-keyed knob from the end 4. Discard the old filter 5. Slide the knob onto the end of the new filter 6. Push the new filter into the fridge until it stops 7. Twist the filter a quarter-turn clockwise 8. Reset your 'change filter' light (if your fridge has one)

I have had one of these units for about 3 years and the water is still being filtered efficiently. It has an adaptor that you screw into the end of your faucet and has a lever to switch it from the faucet to the purifier and then turn it back to have water come back out of your faucet. It's simple. Cheaper than bottled water.

usually. But you could also have a frozen water line in the door just behind the dispenser. Google your refrig on the web for "no water in dispenser" for answers on fixing that. I had a frozen water line and so changing my filter didn't do anything. Before you buy a new filter, try the "by pass" that came with your refrig when you first bought it. If the by pass allows the water to flow then, your filter is plugged up.

Yes. It comes with a fitting that connects to the cold water line underneath your sink. The only water that gets filtered is water coming out of the filtrete faucet. No loss in water pressure. No need to run water for a while when you want to drink fresh water. Also easy to install.

We use filtered water from our refrigerator to get rid of the other tastes. When we put in a new copper line for a pot filler we didn't had to use the fridge filter any more.

No filter that needs to be replaced. Press the button on the bottom to let the water out, and that's it. It works great!

Dunno. Is it a fridge? If so buy it at your risk.. . My LG big expensive double door.. has a major design flaw. The cold air recirculation vents in the deep freeze are too small, so that it rapidly, in a couple of weeks, ices up. The auto-defroster cannot handle it. The circulation fan starts clunking as it hits the ice buildup behind the deepfreezer. . I have to do a manual defrost. I have cut the holess much bigger and it's better, but still needs a manual defrost. This last time I made the holes enormous, so lets see if that helps. If I just left it alone, and not manual defrosted, the deice sensor burns out and and that costs $$$. It has already burnt out 2, thats why I have to fiddle with it. Maybe LG just churn out new product and hope for the best, with little or no testing. If somebody gave me an LG fridge as a present, I would refuse it!!
