Whirlpool EDR6D1 Refrigerator Water Filter 200 Gallon

Product Description

The WHIRLPOOL CORPORATION EDR6D1 is a quarter-turn replacement refrigerator water filter designed for top-freezer models with a grille-mount filter location. Sold as a single unit, this filter is certified to reduce 9 contaminants, including lead, asbestos, pesticides, waterborne parasites, and industrial chemicals. It also reduces chlorine taste and odor for improved water and ice quality. Each filter provides up to 200 gallons of filtered water and should be replaced every 6 months to maintain effective contaminant reduction and proper flow rate. Installation requires no tools and uses a simple quarter-turn locking mechanism.

The EDR6D1 is intended for residential top-freezer refrigerators that use a grille-mounted filter housing. It is an OEM-style replacement for refrigerators manufactured by Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, and Amana. Licensed HVAC and appliance service technicians as well as experienced DIYers performing routine refrigerator maintenance are the typical installers. Filter replacement is a straightforward task that does not require disconnecting the refrigerator from its water supply line beyond the filter swap itself.

Installation Notes

Before replacing the filter, shut off the refrigerator's water supply valve to prevent spillage during removal. The EDR6D1 installs with a simple quarter-turn motion into the grille-mount housing at the base of the refrigerator. After installation, flush the filter by dispensing several gallons of water through the dispenser before use to purge air and loose carbon fines. Replace the filter every 6 months or at 200 gallons, whichever comes first, to ensure continued contaminant reduction performance.
