It is important that you check your water filter every 6 months and watch out for signs of decline in water quality. If you see any unusual sediment or material in your water supply or the water has an unusual taste or smell, these are all signs your filter needs changing.

Why do you need to change your Samsung fridge filter?
Water filters ensure safe drinking water for families, and like every other home, gadgets need to be changed from time to time. But why is this change necessary? I give you some reasons why you need to change your water filter
- For a better water without strange taste or odours
- To remove sediments and fine particles from drinking water
- To avoid toxic substances in the water
- To maintain average water pressure in your dispenser
What happens if you don’t change the fridge filter regularly?
You may be tempted to use your fridge filter for as long as you can, as long as the water tastes good. A lot of people would do the same. But then, it may not be a good idea as many of the contaminants are “tasteless”.
Moreover, it can lead to:
- Slow discharge of water. It is the precise function of the filter to retain “debris” and release fresh water. Over time debris builds up inside the filters which restricts water flow and as a result, not enough ice is made.
- Potential growth of bacteria: Over time, your filter which was supposed to remove contaminants could turn into a potential breeding ground for bacteria.
- The filter will start letting contaminants flow through: When the pores of your filter are blocked with tiny particles, the pressure of the water will force some of these particles and contaminants into your water. Your water will no longer be safe for drinking.
