- Thank you so much for over 200k views !!!
First of all I want to apologize for video quality, at the time i didn't know what i was doing with camera and editing.
In this video I'm showing how to install inline water filter for refrigerator that doesn't equipped with one. Some refrigerators comes with ice makers but don't have any kind of filtration and dirty, unfiltered water can get into your ice and ruin your drink. You can easily install inline water filter that will help to remove odor, bad taste bringing you clear look and better taste.
Warning!!!
I'm not responsible for any damage that can cost while and after water filter installation.
Thank you for watching!

Thanks for the idea of hiding it in the fridge itself. I will have very minimal clearance behind my fridge and this is a nice way to save those crucial couple of inches!
Thanks for taking the time to make this video!
Thanks! That was really easy to follow, and should be easier than I thought it would be to remove the "fishy" water taste from our ice cubes. We've been doing ice by trays for past year. This will be nice to skip that. :)
Mr. Rossinkiy, Thanks for this post it was exactly what i needed to complete the install, once again all info is helpful thanks so much.
no problem. just keep an eye on it. make sure it's not gonna leak.
Thanks for a helpful video. Your time is much appreciated.
Nice. Simple. Thanks for doing this.
BTW, I don't mind the background music.
Thank you for the information! It is really handy since my freezer doesn't come with a filter.
ColinTheDankster you're welcome I'm glad that I helped it's very easy to do project, check out more of my videos on my channel you might find something more helpful
Thanks! I will show this to my husband! He recently installed the line, but the ice does have too much of a chlorine taste and actually burns my throat more than filtered water does. I also like the tip of getting the filter online!
u welcome, thanks for watching
Thanks for the video. Very helpful.
u welcome, thanks for watching!
Nice work thanks. I have a question. Is the marking FLOW side on the filter connect to tap? I was advised to connect the marking FLOW side to the fridge.
You're awesome thanks for the video thanks for saving me the bucks.
Thanks, it was useful!!
Great job thanks!
Wow. Thanks ... this old house guy must be so angry at you but it's fine I like it..
Thank you!!!
Thanks Bruh!
connect the filter is the very best video
Thank youu
hey Ivan,
Thank you! What house tracks are playing as the background? goos stuff!
We tried that but we cut the wrong things so we failed
Alex Palochkin sorry to hear that. Hope u got it fix
My own filter for the fridge is way down the basement while the refrigerator is upstairs and this will be first replacement after buying the house.
I just was surprised that I don't have an in-built filter compartment instead will change the filter far away from the fridge.
What a task.. But thanks for the video anyway-that's helpful.
Is ok to send u the pic of my filter to show u how it looks?
hey bro... is it posible to get info for Whirlpool ed22pq
brilliant video.
question: How do you change this filter since the tubing cannot be reversed out?
you just unscrew feelings out old filter, replaced it with a new filter or you can just remove the whole quick connector out of pipe and install new filter with a quick connectors on it.
those quick connectors that I'm using and in general quick connectors like that, don't seat tight on the pipe, there easily twist so it will be easy to just unscrew the whole connector out of old filter.

Thanks man.
This was very helpful. I actually got the filters with quick connectors on it, so i guess i would have to leave enough room to cut and install new filter.
+Venod Maharaj yes and make sure you cut hose that goes from the refrigerator valve up to ice maker!! not the one I'm cutting from water supply to refrigerator valve and this filters with a ready quick connector build in, you just pull out pipe from this quick connectors and stick pipe into new connectors with a new filter, you don't have to cut it every time.
not all in line filters have the ability to just shove the hoses into the filter, these are VERY hard to find. Can some one provide a link to purchase this specific type of filter in the USA at a reasonable pice?
That is a good tip by first flushing the carbon residue from the filter into a bucket before connecting the line to the refrigerator.
garryonz thank you for watching
Is this approach cheaper & better than an internal filter, Samsung in my case, which runs out every few months?
How long will this filter last?
James Chuaycham ป้อม ศักดิ์ชัย this refrigerator never had internal or external filter. there are tons of refrigerator on the market that does not have a filtration system but do have ice maker. if you already have internal integrated filtration system, just change your filter
City water = clorine.. water is actually cloudy and tan so chlorine makes it look clear. Some places add flourine which many are worried about. Who knows what else is added? Ground water here in South Florida has a lot of Iron, and will stain your washer and shower / bathtub reddish brown. And who knows what seeped into the water table like fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, and chemicles used for farming. And there are chemicles people just pour out back or someplace that seep into the groundwater. Even dirty oil after a driveway oil change someone will just pour out on the ground. You have to use a water filter. Refrigerators today have a fiter inside them that you can replace but are expensive. You can add another filter to the water inlet behind the refrigerator, giving you 2 filters. I would never drink straight tap water.
James Hightower I never drink tap water too unless it's being boiled like in the soup or in a tea or coffee but even with that I've been using the bottle water or filter water. but This filter does work water will taste much much better and the water will be much cleaner. it's not going to kill bacteria or will remove iron, but the taste will be much much better.
I put in a filter but pushing the fridge back in the copper tubing to the outlet to the fridge end leaked. I want the copper tubing out to try again. I redid the filter and tubing as not to jar it pushing the fridge back againts the wall, but I need to stop the leak where the copper tubing goes from the fridge to the filter. I took the plastic clip off, but do not want to yank the copper tubing out, and there are plastic parts that go over the tubing and do not want to damage that. What do you do if an end of a filter leaks after pushing in the tubing? I try it with the water on low at first becuase of the water on the floor, then try full pressure.
First of all, you need to use different type of fittings for a copper tubing, the fittings I was using only for plastic tubing !!!!!!
Thouse fittings are only one time use when you tight them you would have to cut the copper hose off to redo it.
Chlorine does not affect turbidity. Chlorination is to disinfect.
Does this method works on any brand of refrigerator with just an ice dispenser.
Yes of course. They all build the same and you will find hose in the back. It's up to you where you want to mount that filter. Do not ontall this filter to the hose that coming from the wall make sure you intall this filter to the little tiny hose that goes between refrigerator valve and to ice dispenser
This comment doesn't make sense, confusing!!
What is the name and brand of that water filter. It looks so easy to install.
if im not mistaken, its filter by Osmosis, u can buy over ebay or Amazon. for like $10. just changed it every year.
How frequently must this filter be changed? With my GE the machine tells me when to change. My refrigerator is installed within the cabinets in such a way that it is no easy task to pull it out frequently so i am trying to see if this is an option that I should take.
MONISA MONTOYA just change it every 6 months and you'll be just fine it's also depends on what water u on. if you're on city water it have a bleach So 6 months will be ok! now if you don't on well water and it have a lot of iron and other crap I would recommend it to change it every 3 months if you're using your ice a lot. but believe me taste of ice is so much better after I installed it filter !!
Thank you.
What is this device for? To making the food stay warm?
To filter the water, this filter lasts much longer then the filter inside the fridge
If the filter connection leaks on one end, how do I remove the copper tube to try again?
James Hightower why are you saying copper in the video I use only plastic, if you're using copper hose and the plastic fitting that's not going to work, that's not what you need. you have to buy special fittings then you screw, that was made for copper hose only
When you change the filter, do you have to cut the water line again? If so, wouldn't you eventually run out of water line?
No! U have two chooses, just unscrew quick connectors and reuse them with new filter, or when u pull quick connectors just be careful not to break them otherwise they were leak!but with that step u will need to cut hose just a little bit on booth ends.
Thank you for question and the answer!
my tube pops out because of the pressure, i probably didn't push it all the way in.
is your filter normally on the inside of the fridge?mine is inside and was wondering if I can do like this to save money
no, this fridge didn't had filter at all !!!!. u just had to removed your original filter (see if it still pass water through with removed filter) and just like I did, install
in-line filter for $10 :)
Rebecca, do a search for a water filter bypass plug if it leaks after you remove the filter and then you can do it. But be very careful the in-line filter doesn't leak or else it will rot out your floor and cost way more than you will ever save. Another way to do it is to get a water filter pitcher for your drinking water, but your ice cubes may taste cllorine if you're sensitive to the taste.
I found a cheap one on ebay for my model hay
I know this is oooooold-- but if you’re still there, what’s the song at 3:27 ?
Lol thanks
Use Soundhound app. Very useful tool for music track recognition! But here is link:

If the outlet side of the filter with copper tubing leaks, how do I get the tubing out to try again? I sanded and reamed the end of the copper tubing flush, but did not seem to snap in like the other side did, the inlet to the filter tube did fine.
hello friend ,thank you for the video, we have some goods are looking for tester,is there any way we can cooperate?

RUclips Clasher What? Не понятно ?
Make sure ya'll flush dat filter first.
Ryan Stokes ya
Music filler is not good. Quiet better! Good instruction though. Thank you!
This is one of my first videos I didn't knew what the hell I was doing when i was recording and editing
And would be nice if somebody actually could read descriptions to the video
I think you did well for being new to it! I am only voicing my dislike for filler music. It makes me want to mute it, then I end up missing instructions. First world problems! Lol
No I don't know what you are talking about
Carlos Torres very smart...

RUclips Clasher what are you asking ????
Flush your new filter first !
That's what I did.... its in the video!
not to mention you are clumsy
Hello Mr.12 years old.
Thanks for watching my video make sure u ask you mom before messing with her fridge, and just so u know this was one of my first videos.. watch some new ones. don't forget to leave hateful comments... have a good day
Great slam, Ivan! Thanks for the video.
my gosh...get to the point....stop talking soo much
u can always fast forward using red line on the bottom of this video, to the left or to the right, Mr. 12 years old. If for some reason u don't like what u see don't forget to click unlike bottom, that is not gonna hurt me at all :) I already made some good money out of this video, and from your ass by u just viewing it. Thanks!. You have a bless day, and make sure u don't subscribe to my channel, since u don't have nothing smart to say ;)
+Ivan Rossinskiy man are u stupid...learn to criticize properly..u put up a video. .its gonna get criticisms whether u like it or not...i criticized bout the length...u responded by criticizing my age...its like saying ebola kills humans because of its name...dont be so uncouth on account that ur morality is jeopardised by a comment on a media thats free for criticism
+Mr. 12 if u was smarter u wouldn't be watching my video and figure it out on your own, like I did and on top of that made a video to help people. Everybody can criticize but not everybody can do. Only dump, uneducated people, who don't have nothing else to do in their poor lifes just criticize and troll everyone, knowing they can't do a shit... instead of helping, educating people if they're making any sort of mistakes.
+Ivan Rossinskiy like i said...i clicked ur video by mistake...and might i suggest u read T.S.Eliot's "To critize a critic"... if u even know who that is...itll actually help you...its not long...just 10-15 pages...
+Ivan Rossinskiy plus its ironic u urself cant criticize....just helping u bro
