This high quality replacement water filter from WPro is a compatible water filter made to manufacturer's specifications and used on a wide range of American fridge freezers that use the external type water filter.
These are now the newer push fit type and will replace external water filters with other types of fixings. Simply cut any existing fixings from the hose ends and then push the hoses in to each end of the filter to seal.
This version is a little bit more expensive than some of the cheap compatible water filters but it is a better filter removing more impurities from the water and we think it's worth the extra couple of pounds for that level of quality. But please see the information at the bottom of the page on the really cheap water filters that have become available.
Free Timestrip With This Water Filter
With this fridge water filter we include, free of charge, a Timestrip worth £1.49 that allows you to see quickly tell that you are needing a new water filter or to simply see how long the filter that is in the fridge has been there.
The problem with most fridges is that whilst on a fridge at least there is normally some sort of filter change light to tell you when to change the filter it usually won't come on until you actually need to replace the filter. Obviously it is normally a few days before you can get one and swap it over but, if you use the water and ice a lot this can be an inconvenience.
The Timestrip is activated by simply squeezing the bubble on the label and a red line appears almost immediately to confirm that the indicator is active. That's it, you're done!
Safe, simple and dead easy.

Cheap Water Filter Warning
There has been a number of cheap water filters appeared onto the market that seem just like this one. They're not.
We have had several reports now from the engineers on the site that they are finding some of these filters "breaking up" internally and the charcoal or whatever it is that's used in these cheap knock-offs being dragged up into the water system inside the fridge. So far none have suffered any major damage and only required cleaning out although, there's been a fair few Samsung water tanks replaced due to this. It has however cost some people a bit to have the problem sorted out so buying the cheap water filters could well prove to be a false economy.
It is very tempting to think that you can get two filters for less than £10 but please do consider why these water filters are being sold as cheaply as they are before you buy your new water filter.
As usual, we refuse to sell these inferior products.About Fridge Water FiltersThere are some things that people should be aware of about fridge water filters.
Over the past few years, as fridges with filtered water have become more and more popular, we've also seen a mammoth rise in very cheap and, usually very nasty, fridge freezer water filters coming onto the market. It won't surprise most people to learn that these are mass produced very cheaply in places like China and the quality can be, at best, questionable. Of course there are some good filters that come from the Far East as well, we know as we do use some of them, but they cost significantly more than the really cheap and nasty water filters that we won't sell.
Asides from which we've now had several worrying report of these cheap water filters breaking up and contaminating the water system in some models of fridge freezers, that's not good at all.
The point of a water filter in your fridge is to get good, clean water to drink. Many cheap fridge water filters don't accomplish that.

Choosing The Correct Fridge Water Filter
There are, in effect, two ways that fridge water filters are installed, either externally or internally.
Most external water filters are all of the one kind and are pretty much universal, that's the WSF100 type cartridge that has a pipe from your mains water in one side and a pipe out the other to the fridge.
The internal ones can be a lot more interesting.
Most fridge and fridge freezer manufacturers will "brand" their machines for other people so you can save by not buying the, for example, genuine Hotpoint or Smeg water filter and instead buy the Whirlpool one which is much cheaper but, the same water filter. This applies to a good many fridge water filters and if you look closely you can save money on them.
