| The continuing developments in household appliances are exciting in the ways that they contribute to smooth operation in our homes. The use of water filters in refrigerator water systems isn’t at all new, but as the decades pass, water dispensing systems have been improved significantly, as have the related ice dispensing systems. Equally important has been the improvement in design and placement of the water filtration systems. Water filters are helpful in that they allow a dispenser style refrigerator to deliver purified water, chilled and tasteful. Likewise, dispensed ice is produced without foul odors or flavors. The PureSource 3 water filter is an example of this innovation and convenience at work in recent Frigidaire refrigerators. The PureSource 3 water filter isn’t a traditional filter to be installed behind the refrigerator or at some point in the line of delivery of water to the refrigerator. Rather, the PureSource 3 water filter installs at the top right side of the fresh food compartment in your 2009 or later side-by-side refrigerator. The push/push filter style makes it easy to install and easy to remove. Replacement is extremely simple. This model of filter is especially beneficial in that it has been tested and certified as meeting NSF/ANSI standards 42 and 53. These relate to the reduction of a minimum of 95 percent of contaminants from drinking water. One of the most appreciated contaminants dealt with by the PureSource 3 water filter is chlorine. Nobody wants to drink a cup of water that smells and tastes like a swimming pool, especially when it’s coming from the refrigerator dispenser. Neither do you want to use such water with powdered drink mixes or juice concentrates. The removal of chlorine taste and odor is a worthwhile benefit. The filter also reduces several other contaminants, including herbicides and pesticides. Replacement of your PureSource 3 water filter will depend on your household’s size and activity. A busy family with many members will need to replace their filter more often than a small family. It’s important to keep a spare filter on hand so that you can maintain a flow of pure water from your refrigerator. |
