Introduzione

Use this guide to replace the water filter housing in your Whirlpool Refrigerator.

The water filter housing stores the water filter and connects it to the water inlet valve assembly.

This guide will work for most Whirlpool refrigerators. This guide is written with a model WRS315SDHW refrigerator. If you have a different model, you may encounter some minor disassembly differences, but the overall repair process will be the same.

Note: Some photos show the doors removed for clarity purposes. Removing them is not required and will not change the procedure.
