Product Description
The GE GWF SmartWater Refrigerator filter fits all GE and Hotpoint refrigerators with built-in water filtration systems. This filter replaces old GE part numbers GWF01 (SmartWater), GWF06 (SmartWater Plus), and Hotpoint HWF. It improves the taste and odor of the water and removes the following impurities: 99.97% of Cysts, More than 85% of Particulates (Class I), 99% of Turbidity, 99% of Lead, 98% of Chlorine, 84% of 2,4-D (a common herbicide), 76% of Atrazine (a herbicide), 91% of Lindane (a pesticide), and 99% of Asbestos. GE recommends that you replace the filter every 6 months if your refrigerator is not equipped with a filter status indicator light OR if your refrigerator has a filter status light, the filter should be changed when the light comes on or after one year, whichever comes first OR if the refrigerator has not been used for more than two weeks (for instance, during a move) OR if you notice a decrease in the flow of water or objectionable tastes in the water or ice. NOTE: If you are replacing a Water by Culligan filter FXRC, FXRT, MXRC, Hotpoint HXRT, WR97X10006, or Kenmore part number 46-9905 for the first time you will also need to purchase an adapter. The GWF filter plus adapter is 2 inches taller than the FXRC, FXRT, MXRC, HXRT, so if your top refrigerator shelf is set high (close to the bottom of the filter) then you may want to order the MXRC instead

I love my new filter. Are you kidding? A filter is a filter; I do not know whether it works or what is inside. The price is ridicilous. $40 for a filter that looks like a $5 auto filter.

I only use my fridge ice/water for the Ice, but I noticed a difference after replacing this unit that it produced more ice and cleaner.

It works good for it's little size. Should be one of your many treatments for Water in the Home. But even better(for the $$$) is a good Water Filter for your Shower/Bath systems. But only if you want to live longer,look better and have less allergies....LOL! True your skin is the largest organ so it's best always to bath/shower with the cleanest water possible. Enviro Premium Shower Filter Complete this one is the best spin on head we have used.Hand held shower filter A Hand Held Unit is often better for the tub or for overall versatility. Take care of your health and you will be taken care of.
