Frequently asked

What water filter does a FRS23F5AQ3 refrigerator use?

The FRS23F5AQ3 uses the WF2CB water filter.

Does the WF2CB remove lead?

Our data doesn't show an NSF/ANSI 53 lead-reduction claim for the WF2CB. Check the filter's own NSF certification sheet before assuming it reduces lead.

Should I buy the OEM filter or an aftermarket one?

The OEM WF2CB is the safe, exact-fit choice. A cheaper aftermarket filter can fit the same slot too - just confirm it carries its own independent NSF certification for the contaminants you care about, since a generic aftermarket filter without certification isn't proven to remove anything.

How often should I replace the WF2CB?

Most refrigerator filters are replaced every 6 months regardless of the exact model - use your fridge's filter-change indicator as the trigger if it has one.

Where is the water filter on a FRS23F5AQ3?

Location varies by fridge design - commonly inside the fridge compartment (upper right or lower kickplate/grille) or in the water line behind the unit. Check your owner's manual for the exact spot on this model.
