What is the difference between the DA29-00003G & the DA29-00003G-2?
Samsung orginally had one manufacturer (Aqua Pure) make their filter under a patent. As the patent has now finished, other manufacturers have been
licensed to manufacture this filter. The '-2' series is a USA made filter made to the same standards and offers a slightly better price.
What is the benefit of having a water filter in my fridge?
The DA29-00003G-2 for Samsung fridges filter removes the following impurities from your drinking water:
- 99% of Lead, 94-97% of Mercury, 99 of Asbestos, 90% of Benzene, 99% of P-Dichlorobenzene, 99% of Cysts, 99% of Carbofuran, 97% of Chlorine and 98% of rust, dirt, sand and sediment (0.5 to 1 micron in size).
- It is reported to improve the clarity of drinking water by 99%.
- The DA29-00003B-2 does NOT remove Fluoride.
Changing the filter regularly in your ice/water refrigerator also reduces the build-up of scale in your ice-making mechanism thereby reducing the need for costly services.
Overall, it provides better tasting and smelling water with improved clarity.
The DA29-00003G-2 fridge filter cartridge is tested and certified to meet NSF & exceed NSF/ANSI Standards 42 & 53.
Installing your new water filter:
- Twist the old filter a quarter-turn counterclockwise.
- Pull the filter straight down and discard (the water will shut off automatically).
- Push the new filter up into the fridge until it stops.
- Twist the filter a quarter-turn clockwise.
- Reset your "change filter" light (if your fridge has one).
Resetting your "change filter" light:
- Press and hold the ice type(or moisture control) and child lock buttons (at the same time) for 3 seconds - the light should turn green. Some newer buttons require the power freeze and ice type to be pressed simultaneously.
