How to Replace the Frigidaire Rocket-Type Refrigerator Filter
The Frigidaire internal filter ULTRAWF, with its cylindrical design, is usually installed in the upper part of the compartment of newer refrigerators. To replace this part properly, follow the steps below:
Resetting the filter light: when you are done, hold the Water Filter button on the Frigidaire refrigerator panel for 3 seconds so the warning light resets.
Risks of not replacing the filter: using a water filter for more than a year leads to the build-up of bacteria and sediment and a sharp drop in water pressure. This not only lowers water quality and can cause algae growth inside the circuit, but also puts extra strain on the refrigerator’s solenoid valve, which may burn out and lead to costly repairs.
