How to Install the Samsung Rocket-Type Water Filter

Replacing the rocket-type filters in Samsung side-by-side and French-door refrigerators is very simple. This filter is generally located horizontally in the lower part of the compartment, between or next to the fruit drawers. To install it, follow these steps:

1. First, close the water inlet valve at the back of the refrigerator. (Some models have an automatic shut-off, but closing the valve makes the job safer.)
2. Hold the handle of the old filter, turn it counter-clockwise (to the left) to release it, and then pull it straight out.
3. Remove the cap from the new filter, insert it horizontally into the housing and push it in. Then turn it clockwise until it is fully latched and locked.
4. Open the water valve again. To purge the system and flush out the initial carbon fines, dispense and discard about 3 to 5 liters of water from the dispenser paddle.

Frequently asked questions about the genuine Korean Samsung filter

• What is the difference between the rocket-type filter and Samsung’s cup-type model?
  The rocket-type filter has a slimmer design and is usually installed at the bottom of the refrigerator, while the cup-type model is installed inside the compartment with a twist motion. Both work in a similar way for reducing odor, chlorine and sediment, but the installation location and replacement method are different.
• How long does a Samsung rocket-type filter last?
  Depending on water quality, it has a useful life of 6 to 12 months and should then be replaced to maintain filtration performance.
