Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Locate Water Line: Identify the 1/4" water line leading to your refrigerator's water dispenser or ice maker.
- Turn Off Water Supply: Ensure the main water supply to the refrigerator is turned off.
- Disconnect Old Filter (if applicable): If replacing an existing filter, disconnect it from the water line.
- Connect New Filter: Push the 1/4" water lines firmly into the push-fit connectors on both ends of the Finest-Filters T33. Ensure a secure connection.
- Turn On Water Supply: Slowly turn the water supply back on.
- Flush System: Dispense approximately 2-3 gallons of water to flush out any air or sediment before first use.
Compatibility:
This filter is universally designed to work with refrigerators featuring a 1/4" inline water connection. It is compatible with most major brands including, but not limited to, Samsung, LG, GE, Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, and others that utilize standard inline water filters. It can also be used with other water systems requiring a 1/4" inline filter, such as some under-sink setups or beverage coolers.
Care:
- Replacement: Replace the filter every 6 to 12 months or after filtering 1,500 gallons, whichever comes first, to maintain optimal performance and water quality.
- Cleaning: The filter itself is not designed to be cleaned. If the external connections become dirty, wipe them with a dry cloth. Ensure the area around the filter is kept clean.
- Storage: Store spare filters in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
