A13402902 - Electrolux Refrigerator Filter

This Electrolux Refrigerator Filter Bypass (A13402902) is a genuine part designed for Electrolux and Frigidaire refrigerators, and it enables water to flow to the dispenser and ice maker when the filter is removed. The process involves a simple push-twist connection in the water filter head. Refrigerator filters, including water and air types, play a crucial role in maintaining appliance efficiency by removing contaminants such as chemicals, minerals, odors, and particulates from water, and dust and lint from air circulation. Filters use activated carbon for absorption and have limited lifetimes based on usage. Clogged filters can restrict flows and potentially impact temperature regulation within the refrigerator. Proper filter maintenance, including timely replacement as stated in the owner's manual, assures continued filtering functionality for cleaner water and air, safeguarding both the refrigerator's components and its contents. If you're noticing restricted water flow to your dispenser or ice maker, it could indicate that it's time for a bypass or filter change. Before purchasing, it's important to verify your refrigerator's model number to ensure compatibility with this Filter Bypass.
