Great way to save $$ on filter maintenance
For those of you that already have adequate water filtration systems, you can save the cost of replacing the GE water filter by purchasing and installing this filter by pass. Water filters need to be replaced periodically or have the potential of deteriorating the water quality and the one in your refrigerator is no exception. This bypass eliminates the filter and has a side benefit of substantially increasing water flow from the tap. Easy to install, less expensive than a new filter, and permanently eliminates the double filter maintenance cost when your refrigerator is connected to your water filtration system.
I got the wrong one for my fridge, but seller swapped it out for free!
I didn't check the models well enough, but the seller swapped it out with no problem! Thanks! I have a reverse osmosis device in place before the water gets to the fridge, so this about doubled the speed the water comes out of the fridge now!
Great way to save money
My refrigerator has a light on the front panel to indicate that the filter needs to be replaced. My husband is unable to just ignore it resulting in us buying $50 (or more) filters several times a year. Our water comes from a community well that is monitored and tested monthly. Since we don't filter our drinking water I began to wonder why I cared if the water dispensed from my fridge was filtered. I had no idea that a bypass even existed.
Wasn't sure if my refrigerator was a model that this would fit but a bit of Google searching on appliance websites gave me the information that it was the right part. Could not be easier to install. Unscrew old filter, screw this in instead.
An unexpected plus is that I gained a tiny bit of shelf space since the filter hung down about 8" in the back corner.
If you have good water or if you incoming line to the fridge is already filtered I would highly recommend this easy way to save significant money.
