Refrigerator water filters (cartridge replacement)

Saturday, January 16, 2010

When the light on the inside of the door goes from green to red on most refrigerators with a water filter built in, it says that we need to replace the refrigerator water filter. Most of today’s refrigerators have built in water filters to clean the water for ice and cold drinks. We own a Kenmore Model #106.56703500 side-by-side refrigerator that takes Model #9030 replacement refrigerator water filters.

A lot of the Kenmore appliances are built by Whirlpool. This bit of information is quite handy when you go searching for your water filter replacement cartridge. Apparently there are many different water filters on the market and they fit an assortment of makes and models.

First I checked the prices at Sears and found that it would be $49.98 for a new water filter plus shipping . Needless to say that seemed a bit pricey for me so I started looking around for another source. I was pleasantly surprised to find that Amazon Replacement Refrigerator Water Filters has quite a selection of replacement refrigerator water filters.

I just purchased the Whirlpool 4396710P PUR Side By Side Refrigerator Push Button Cyst Reducing Water Filter, 2-Packquick turn water filter cartridge exchange from Amazon for $63 with Free shipping. That’s just under $32 each and I ordered them from the comfort of my home. $63 per year (they recommend changing the filters ever 6 months) seems fairly reasonable to have filtered water from our refrigerator.
