Refrigerator Water Filters

A refrigerator water filter is a convenient and cost-effective alternative to bottled water for anyone who enjoys the refreshing taste of chilled, filtered water. Regular replacement of your fridge water filter ensures that you enjoy consistent and reliable results. It's an easy process, and easy to understand the benefits when you consider a few simple questions.

Why should I buy a refrigerator water filter?

Fridge water filters reduce impurities and contaminants in your water, including water used in ice makers, so it always tastes fresh. Though most municipal tap water in Canada is treated to meet high standards of sanitation, the chemicals used, such as chlorine, can leave an undesirable taste that a filter helps to eliminate. Fridge filters tend to last longer than typical tap-mounted or pitcher filters, but they still require replacement to be effective.

How often should I replace my refrigerator water filter?

It's recommended you replace your fridge filter approximately every 6 months for best results. Whether you have an inline filter or a push-in filter, they are very easy to install by following the manufacturer's instructions. In most cases, this involves simply pushing in and twisting the new filter, then flushing it with the appropriate amount of water before its first use.

What do I need to consider before buying a refrigerator water filter?

Simply check to ensure compatibility with your make and model of refrigerator. When you shop BestBuy.ca, all compatible refrigerators will be clearly indicated in the filter description. You'll find compatible filters for refrigerators from top brands including Samsung, LG, GE, and Whirlpool.
